Summary

With over 14 years of experience, I am a results-oriented professional with expertise in program development and implementation. I have a strong track record of collaborating with donor agencies such as UNICEF, DFID, GAC, BMZ, Humedica, CEDA, JAICA, Plan International, PSDF and Creative International to execute donor-funded projects in diverse communities. My skills include developing dashboard reporting systems and utilizing MS Excel, Word, and PowerPoint for data analysis. I am well-versed in project management methodologies and have practical knowledge in various project areas such as WASH, Livelihood, Disaster Risk Management, Emergency Response, child protection, Gender Mainstreaming, Women Empowerment, Dairy development, Health, and Education. Additionally, I have provided strategic guidance and monitoring to partner organizations and government agencies, and played a key role in conducting situation analysis and program design during emergency responses such as the flood of 2010 and 2022, as well as the Covid-19 pandemic.
