OthersGeneral Information
My interest comes from my work background, of more than 30 years in the International Red Cross/Red Crescent organization. I worked several years in the Mediterranean region, namely in North Africa and in the South West Balkans. I continue to visit the region as I have a second home in Tunisia.
Currently I act as Secretay for the National Forum for Cooperation of Religions in Finland (CORE). This organisation brings together the main religious groups in Finland, namely the Jewish, Christian and Muslim.
Mission and Objectives
I share the objectives of the Anna Lindh Foundation and would like to contribute to its work where my experience could be useful. I believe that it is important to promote understanding and respect between cultures and people, and combat ignorance and xenophobia.
Main Projects / Activities
My areas of expertise are in humanitarian aid, organizational development, gender issues and inter-religious cooperation.
