I have a long and distinguished career in the media industry, spanning for more than three decades.
I was actively involved in many ambitious projects, including the launch of the BBC Arabic TV in 1994, and Al Arabiya TV channel in 2003, in addition to the evaluation of the Palestinian TV output at the request of the EU in 2012. I was also involved in numerous workshops, seminars, conferences, as media expert and senior trainer, organised by Euromed, IREX, AFP Foundation, Thompson Foundation, BBC Media Action, etc. Being an internationally recognized media expert, I was part of several consulting teams dispatched in various developing countries by several media institutions such as BBC Media Action, Thompson Foundation, AFP Foundation, IREX, UNDP, etc. The aim was to help improve the professional standard of local journalists and instil a new media culture based on freedom of speech, accuracy and impartiality.
During my long professional career, I gained a great deal of valuable field knowledge and experience in the countries where I operated including Morocco, Mauritania, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Kuwait, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, etc. In my capacity as Director of Assignment, in charge of more than twenty bureaus and over forty correspondents, I used to run an internal project aimed at training young journalists from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iraq, Bahrain, UAE, etc. Last but not least, I led a media team that promoted media freedom in Morocco in conjunction with the CMF (Centre for Media Freedom). After five years of continuous field action, our efforts were rewarded with the introduction of article 27 on ‘the right to access information’, in the constitution adopted in the 2011 referendum.
