Dana is a Law and Politics student involved in youth participation and ecosystem preservation matters. She conducted research on the impact of youth on achieving the SDG’s and the extent to which gender correlates with waste production in MENA and presented her findings to Egypt’s National Renewable Energy Authority.
She’s a member of IRENA’s Youth Forum and was a youth delegate in the ninth and tenth assembly sessions. She’s Egypt’s contact point in the SDG7 constituency group, an outreach officer at the MENA Youth Network, and the youngest and only Arab member of the Sustainable Ocean Alliance Youth Policy Advisory Council serving as Secretary and Representative of Egypt.
Dana is passionate about members most affected by the lack of urgency in the climate crisis, and has thus founded EcoSpectrum, the first app in the world that aims to elevate the inclusivity of youth on the spectrum of autism in climate and ocean conservation discussions.
