Being part of IOM gives me the chance to contribute to important projects that address issues like refugee resettlement and human trafficking. I believe that by working together, we can make a real difference in the lives of migrants and their communities.
With my background in Political Science and my ability to speak multiple languages, I feel well-equipped to support IOM's mission. I'm eager to use my skills in research and community engagement to help improve the lives of migrants around the world.
In short, my motivation for joining IOM is driven by a desire to make the world a better place for migrants, and I'm excited about the opportunity to be part of such meaningful work.
Passionate advocate for migrant and human rights, dedicated to advancing the mission of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). As a refugee myself, I bring a deeply personal understanding of the challenges and opportunities associated with migration, along with a commitment to promoting the well-being and dignity of migrants worldwide.
With a background in Political Science and fluency in English, Dutch, French, Pashto, Dari and Urdu, I have cultivated a comprehensive understanding of international migration dynamics. My journey as a refugee has fueled my passion for advocating for the rights and protection of vulnerable migrants, inspiring me to pursue opportunities to make a positive impact in the field of migration.
Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have had the privilege of working closely with migrant communities, refugees, and asylum seekers, providing direct assistance, advocacy, and support services. Whether facilitating refugee resettlement programs, conducting outreach and education initiatives, or advocating for policy reforms to protect migrant rights, I have consistently prioritized the needs and voices of those most affected by migration.
Driven by the vision of a world where migration is safe, orderly, and dignified, I am deeply committed to contributing to IOM's mission of promoting humane and sustainable migration solutions. I am particularly passionate about addressing the root causes of migration, combating human trafficking and exploitation, and ensuring the social and economic integration of migrants into host communities.
As a firm believer in the power of collaboration and empathy, I am eager to leverage my personal experience, skills, knowledge, and experiences to support IOM's efforts in protecting vulnerable migrants, facilitating voluntary returns and reintegration, and fostering inclusive societies that embrace diversity and promote social cohesion.
I am excited about the opportunity to join a dynamic and dedicated team of professionals at IOM and to work together towards achieving our shared goals of building a more just, equitable, and compassionate world for all.
