On Our Team:

Nejmah

Country Representative, Palestine

I am from Ramallah, West Bank-Palestine. I am the Country Representative for Rebuilding Alliance in Palestine. I moved to Ramallah in my teens from the USA, and after experiencing a tremendous free and fun childhood life, I was culturally shocked by the move. I was faced with experiencing not only the shift from being American to a Palestinian but also a Palestinian living under occupation.

This dramatic change also influenced my studies and later on my career path that led me to study and practice law. I decided that I would serve Palestine in any which way possible. Rebuilding Alliance has helped me reach this goal by helping to advance the lives and rights of all Palestinians. Although I recently joined the team, I feel like I have been working with them for a lifetime, and I am excited for what is to come.
