What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead and coordinate humanitarian and development programs—strengthening child protection, education in emergencies, and GBV prevention—while collaborating with NGOs, schools, and youth networks to deliver measurable, safeguarding-centered impact for displaced communities.

I’m a humanitarian and development professional with over eight years of experience designing and delivering programs that strengthen child protection, education in emergencies, GBV prevention, peacebuilding, and youth empowerment in conflict-affected communities. I’m driven by my commitment to advancing the rights, protection, and meaningful participation of vulnerable and displaced youth.

I’ve led impactful, multi-sector interventions and partnerships—supervising a team of 10 staff and volunteers, securing donor funding, and delivering results like reaching 4,000+ direct and 15,000+ indirect beneficiaries through protection and education initiatives. From film-based GBV prevention models to case management, safeguarding, community mobilisation, and MEL reporting, I focus on practical systems that communities can sustain.
