I lead humanitarian programmes, emergency responses, and refugee support across Egypt and displacement contexts.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently leading a UNICEF-funded malnutrition prevention project at the Egyptian Food Bank for Palestinian refugee children across Greater Cairo and North Sinai. I oversee project set-up, budgets, procurement, contracting, field-team recruitment, and delivery planning.
At Catholic Relief Services, I managed school-grant distributions for more than 70,000 refugee students and led emergency responses for Sudanese and Palestinian displacement crises. I coordinated with UNHCR and UNICEF, managed project finances and donor reporting, and supported unaccompanied and separated children through child protection protocols.
My work also includes project coordination, corporate partnerships, operations, and international cooperation. I'm committed to principled, people-centred humanitarian action that strengthens protection, food security, and support for displaced communities.
