سلام, I work for the Core Team of Movement Strategy, and excited to be attending my first WikiCon North America. Originally from Iran and raised in Toronto, I have been a social development practitioner for more than 7 years, working with young and mobile volunteer movements in the Asia-Pacific region and the international response to HIV; in public and private sectors, with NGOs, diverse community-based organizations, and the UN. My experiences have had me based in Southeast Asia, Central Asia and Europe, as well as Canada of course. Before supporting the Wikimedia movement, I was working with UNESCO in Afghanistan on education reform, curriculum design, life skills development, and digital literacy.
