What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters collaboration and innovation in gender advocacy.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong commitment to gender equity and youth empowerment. My recent internship at the Tanzania Gender Networking Programme allowed me to curate the Gender Festival of 2023, showcasing feminist leadership milestones in Tanzania. I organized advocacy workshops aimed at enhancing women's participation in various sectors, and I actively supported initiatives for climate action campaigns focused on clean cooking.

In addition to my internship, I have gained valuable experience as a Rapporteur and Media Lead for You Lead Africa, where I collaborated on sentiment analysis and provided recommendations on critical issues such as climate change and gender equity. My volunteer work at various organizations has further honed my facilitation and organizational skills, allowing me to effectively engage diverse audiences in meaningful discussions on feminism and social justice.
