About me

As a project coordinator at the Halabja Disabled Organization (HDO), I contribute to the planning, implementation, and monitoring of various projects and activities that aim to empower and support people with disabilities in my community. I have organized and monitored the "Yes we can platform", a program that provides training, mentoring, and networking opportunities for people with disabilities who want to start their own businesses or projects.

I am also a disability activist, as I have a personal experience of living with a disability. I have participated in several campaigns, events, and workshops that raise awareness and advocate for the rights and inclusion of people with disabilities. I have also collected and analyzed data on the needs, challenges, and opportunities of people with disabilities in Halabja, and provided recommendations for policy and action.

I am pursuing my master's degree in English Language Teaching at the University of Kurdistan in Iran, after completing my bachelor's degree in English Language and Literature at the University of Halabja. I have a strong passion and proficiency for languages, and I have taught English as a second language to various groups of learners, including children, students, and adults. I have also represented Halabja University in China in a delegation program, and acquired multiple certificates in areas such as NLP, leadership, and tutoring techniques.
