مغربية الجنسية حاصلة على الدكتوراه تخصص الفكر الاسلامي

Budding entrepreneur & mother Passionate about equal opportunities for women & Meticulous and thirsty to learn more & improve myself

Right now, I'm a 31-year-old entrepreneur, a mother of three children, going to school currently for early childhood education and business, while starting a business for clothing and crochet items.

Having the belief that my passion for learning is fascinatingly allied with my desire to help others, not only do I excel as a community member , but I also seek unique ways to see and connect with the material through real-world scenarios while constantly trying to improve the surrounding around me and make a difference somehow. For instance: In my role as  community  head Assistant  was tasked with scheduling and bringing together enviromental weekly sanitation events for student partakers. I implemented my exposure and enthusiasm as a leader and a spokesperson to view what methods worked best for participation, created a presentation showing some plausible techniques to draw students, and gave a discourse about it in the assembly hall. Likewise, I encouraged the school head and members to share their visions and talked of the delivered approaches that could be implemented in their duties too. The following month, students’ participation in the annual debate contest dramatically increased. I have been volunteering for weekly environmental sanitatin in my community for about three years now. When I first took part in it as a volunteer,   committee was trying to abate plastic usage in everyday lives. I turned to two other nearby community organizations and attended a workshop class. I did my research unswervingly and discussed the findings with the volunteer coordinator who approved my request to host a two-day awareness campaig event for campaign nearby  our area. I worked with the staff and my fellow volunteers to plan activities and food to serve at the event. I also designed paper bags and promoted information about its users through social media channels. The students enrolled in the educational institutes at that time came to an approach of severely minimizing plastic pens and instead buying refills or using a fountain pen that runs on organic ink. Prior to this, I was a volunteer for In addition, I organized study groups for grade 10 pupils of my community. I strengthened my knowledge of the subject while helping fellow classmates understand the material I have repeatedly been asked to train new team members of various grades on the basics and help them get up to speed. Once in a junior-level safety education class, the students were broken off into teams of eight and had to complete a large project throughout the entire year. The team I led ended up getting the highest grade in the class because I set a schedule early in the project and delegated tasks to people based on their strengths. Volunteering activities like these have spared me the privilege to work with people of diverse age groups, Receiving this scholarship will create a foundation for getting me closer to my goals of one day having a fruitful career. Ten years from now I see myself engaged at a large local firm, assessing, designing, crafting, and applying alongside giving back to my community.
