Introducing SAHAR’s New Program Manager

We are thrilled to announce that Farzanah Darwish has joined Sahar Education as our new Program Manager. With a profound commitment to girls' education and equitable access to quality learning, Farzanah brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to our team.

Farzanah holds an M.S. in International Educational Development from the University of Pennsylvania and has pursued a partial Ph.D. alongside an M.Sc. in Pure Mathematics from India. Her impressive academic background is complemented by extensive teaching experience and a track record of impactful work in the field.

Prior to joining us, Farzanah collaborated with Lapis Group (Moby Group) to enhance media-based education for girls in Afghanistan and worked with UNESCO on initiatives aimed at supporting girls in conflict-affected regions.
