概要

I did a master’s in Economics from the University of Sindh Jamshoro, did certification in Project Management & Methodology, and possess more than 12-year experience in the Humanitarian and Development Sector, particularly in the field of MEAL.I have been contributing to establishing the MEAL system, conducting monitoring, research, assessments, impact studies, reporting and evaluations.

DAI as a MEAL Officer – Sindh, in a CRA project. During my professional journey for the last 12 years with National, International and UN Organizations, I successfully supervised, supported, implemented and coordinated MEAL related tasks.
