I currently work for the International Rescue Committee’s regional office in Amman, Jordan. My role involves coordinating and reporting on policy and advocacy initiatives in the MENA region. It includes supporting the development of regional advocacy materials, providing technical assistance to country programs, ensuring access to relevant briefing materials to influence decision-makers and other stakeholders, participating in advocacy training and fundraising, and representing the IRC in regional advocacy forums.
