Ambassador’s Report
As a GHI ambassador, I am dedicated to promoting GHI's goals throughout my country and North Africa. I look forward to sharing GHI's mission with scientists, policymakers, and the public, because I believe that true global progress in food systems can only happen when all voices are included.
As a nutritionist, I will work to guide citizens toward healthier, safer, and more sustainable food choices. I am committed to making this positive impact both in my local community and across the region.
As a GHI ambassador, I have several plans to help our GHI network grow in my country and region:
First, I will find and connect with food and nutrition experts, and invite them to join GHI. This will help bring new voices and knowledge into this global network.
Another important goal is to translate GHI information and documents into Arabic and the Berber language. This will make our materials accessible to many more people, including the public, journalists, and local authorities.
I also plan to organize meetings and presentations at my university to introduce students and colleagues to GHI's important work.
I will actively promote GHI's activities on my social media to help spread the word and build support.
