About me

Hello! I've been a passionate volunteer since 2005, mainly contributing to Arabic, French, and Commons projects. I co-founded WikiDZ at the end of 2014, and since 2015, I've been organizing a variety of exciting activities for both local and regional communities. These include photo contests, education programs, and more. One of the projects I’m incredibly proud of is Wikimassak, a MOOC that has attracted 10,000 subscribers, helping Arabic-speaking beginners dive into the world of knowledge. I’ve received touching messages from people all over, like a blind participant and young learners in non-Arabic-speaking countries, which deeply moved me and fueled my passion to keep pushing forward, spreading knowledge, and closing gaps wherever they exist.

As a volunteer, I also co-founded the Arabic Wikimedians User Group to enhance collaboration across the Arabic-speaking community worldwide. I even organized the WikiArabia conference with WikiDZ online, which was an amazing opportunity to reconnect with some of the quieter voices in the Arabic community.

My work

Product Ambassadors empower product teams to work closely with communities. Product Ambassadors work within their home communities to build connection, having local conversations over time about Wikimedia products.
