What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to international cooperation and social-impact projects through project design, MEAL, budget management, technical reporting, and multi-stakeholder partnership building.

I'm currently supporting CIFA ETS in Ethiopia, contributing to annual operational planning, MEAL systems, donor reporting, and budget monitoring for PRO.M.ET.EO and Second Life.

I work across Addis Ababa, Dire Dawa, and Harar to coordinate dialogue among local authorities, vulnerable community actors, and private-sector partners. My work combines social project design, context analysis, capacity-building strategies, and the creation of territorial networks.

At the OPCW in The Hague, I coordinated international logistics for the Africa Programme and supported high-level meetings with States Parties. I also co-authored the 2024 report Indicative Guidelines for Safe and Secure Transport of Hazardous Chemicals by Road.

I bring experience in social inclusion, educational initiatives, technical writing, and international cooperation, supported by PCM, RBM, budgeting, data collection, and generative AI tools.
