OMNIA SHAWKAT
SUSTAINABILITY CONSULTANT
"Centering communities from the outset, and providing them with empowering information to design more relevant interventions, has the potential to transform evaluation, as communities feel valued rather than dispensable."
Weaving technology, culture, and media better than your Discover Weekly. Omnia has spent over 15 years in project management, social enterprise development, organizational risk assessment, and sustainability. She also has more than a decade of experience linking civil society to businesses, governments, regulators, and communities.
Named among the top 9 women tech innovators in Africa, and (yes, there's more) among the top 10 women leading tech across the Middle East and North Africa, she supports teams to uncover unconventional growth opportunities, test new tools, and institutionalize learning.
She is also the Founder of Andariya, a Sudan-based company specializing in research, content creation, media development, and cultural programs.
If you don't catch her in Sudan, you might find her in Qatar, Kenya, or Uganda. Honestly, even we can’t keep track.
