As a seasoned Advocacy and Communication Specialist with extensive experience across Africa, I am passionate about driving social impact through strategic communication, policy engagement, and stakeholder collaboration. Currently serving as a Senior Advocacy and Communication Officer at APHRC, I focus on advancing evidence-based advocacy on pressing issues like sexual and reproductive health, mental health, and climate change adaptation. My work includes designing communication strategies, spearheading advocacy campaigns, and facilitating regional engagements to foster inclusive policies that improve health and development outcomes.Throughout my career, I’ve leveraged my skills to bridge the gap between research, policy, and practice. I specialize in crafting clear, impactful narratives that influence policy discourse and engage stakeholders across sectors, from governments to civil society organizations. My approach integrates data-driven insights with creative storytelling, ensuring that key messages resonate with diverse audiences and lead to actionable change.Previously, I held roles at Aga Khan University’s Nurse and Midwife Alliance, where I advocated for the professional development of nurses and midwives in East Africa, and at Cause Impact Limited, where I led communication strategies for various social impact projects. These experiences have equipped me with a unique ability to navigate complex social issues and mobilize networks to achieve lasting impact.I am passionate about fostering partnerships that amplify the voices of marginalized populations and using communication as a tool to drive sustainable, inclusive development.
