Bio

Gender Equality Activist, youth worker and human rights educator.
Founder, Gender Hub Azerbaijan
Knowledge of English, Russian and Turkish.



I am gender equality activist, youth worker and trainer from Azerbaijan with a global mindset and ability to understand local realities. I am very passionate about public policy making, gender studies and non-formal education. Having experience in managing the biggest national organisation in Azerbaijan and national branch of biggest youth organisation on a national level (AIESEC in Azerbaijan) helped me to become more qualified in change management, team management, strategic planning and organisational development. In the past 10 years I spent my time advocating for youth and women rights in Azerbaijan by facilitating and managing youth trainings, conferences and campaigns. Based on ''Tipping Point'' by Malcolm Gladwell I consider myself as a ''connector'' and ''sales man''.

In the last years, I had a chance to develop my facilitating and mentoring skills by traveling around the world and So far, I traveled to 43 and managed to break a lot of cultural and gender stereotypes.
Out of 17 Sustainable Developments Goals that the world is committed to achieve by 2030, I speak up for ''Quality Education'' and ''Gender Equality'', because I believe that not only academic knowledge is needed to improve the world.
