It's official! I'm embarking on a transformative project "Making Aid Work for Displaced Women." After a decade-long journey to this point, I'm so thankful to all the people and organizations who supported me along the way. We got here! Can't wait to see the difference we'll make!

Really enjoyed reviewing the Oxford Handbook on Women and Islam by Asma Afsaruddin. A rich, multi-disciplinary volume that challenges assumptions and centres Muslim women’s voices. 📖 Read my review (50 free copies): tandfonline.com/eprint/THAISPV…
