I have finished B.Sc. in Pharmacy from Al-Azhar University and I have finished my Master degree of Public Health-Epidemiology from Al-Quds University, Palestine. Currently, I am studying at PhD program in Epidemiology- Public Health, at Alexandria University, Egypt. I am working as Qualitative researcher at Gender and Adolescence: Global Evidence (GAGE) program. Working in Qualitative and Quantitative research in GAGE program provided me a broad insight about Adolescents Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health in Palestine, in addition to further insights about other countries such as Jordan, Ethiopia and Bangladesh. Moreover, I worked in many international research programs on the SRH services such as evaluation of family planning and postnatal services.

Interestingly, the 2020 GFMER course provided me a unique opportunity to deep-dive and gain advanced knowledge about the Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health in order to build up my professional capacity
