Fatima Funsho
Trustee and Co- Chief Executive
I am a CIPD accredited MA Human Resource Management graduate with over than 16 years’ experience as a HR professional in the UAE. My key competencies include Effective communication, Process improvement, People analytics, Reporting, Critical thinking, Planning and Organization.
I have been part of The Sahel initiative as a Trustee since its inception in 2016 and strongly believe in its mission to provide easy access to safe drinking water the rural communities in the Sahel region. Some of us are fortunate enough to just turn on the tap in our homes and have access to clean water without a second thought as to how that water got there however this is not the case for over 2 billion people globally which is an alarming 30% of the world’s population.
Through the Sahel Initiative, I hope to play small part in helping bring clean water to as many people as possible. This is especially crucial in these times considering that one of the most effective ways to stop the spread of COVID-19 and other pathogens is proper hand hygiene.
