Over the past few years, I have successfully directed the financial and programmatic implementation of media-related programs valued at $0.5 million at the Moroccan Forum of Young Journalists. My work has focused on advocacy and capacity building for journalists, emphasizing media literacy, human rights, and gender equality. I take pride in my ability to secure grants and increase funding by 125% through innovative approaches and community engagement strategies.

My experience as a Project Coordinator and Project Officer has equipped me with the skills to enhance public awareness and support for gender equality initiatives. I have played a pivotal role in creating documentation on gender-related media approaches and facilitating best practice exchanges within a global network. I am passionate about fostering collaboration among diverse stakeholders to create an inclusive media landscape that promotes freedom of expression and social justice.
