Hello Everyone,

My name is Ala' Alhusseini and I recently joined the New Tactics team as the MENA Initiative Manager. Operating from Amman, Jordan, the MENA initiative will provide a space for all Arabic-speaking people who have the interest in joining dialogues and discussions related to human rights issues.

I encourage all of you to have a look at the description of our MENA component and please feel free to send me topics that you think are worth discussing in the future once the website is up and running.

The MENA initiative will also work on providing face-to-face training in Egypt and Tunisia to come up with skilled New Tactics methodology trainers that will contribute to other efforts in the region for building the capacities of Human Rights Activists.

I am so excited to be part of this and really looking forward to sharing and exchanging stories and experiences with all of you.

Ala'

    It is SO great to have you on the team, Ala'!  There is no one better to lead this New Tactics initiative in the Middle East North Africa region!  I look forward to working with you on bringing together more human rights practitioners from the region to share their experiences, challenges, ideas and innovative tactics!

    Welcome! :)

    Welcome Ala!

    Congratulations on your membership to New Tactics, and your anticipated great work as MENA Initiative Manager. What a great region in which to make a contribution. I look forward to interacting and learning from the new members joining the dialogues and discussions. Good luck and blessings on your work, and the teaching and learning of human rights. Face-to-Face training for citizens of Egypt and Tunisia is exactly what is needed in this time of revolution. As we know, New Tactics are not restricted to advanced technology. We share in your excitement and enthusiasm.

    Thanks a lot, as you said, the MENA region is going through a very critical time nowadays and all efforts are much needed to build a more democratic environment where Human rights are respected and not violated on a daily base.


    all the best,


    Ala'

    Hello Ala'. Mabruk on your new position and joining the fabulous New Tactics Team. I hope our paths will cross this year. FYI, I'm writing a book on grass-roots, nonviolent campaigns and movements to curb corruption and gain accountability.
