About Me

Mr. Fathi Al-Dhafri was serving as the National Focal Point for the Youth for Change program phase II, a venture begun in 2008 by TakingITGlobal, the Bibliotheca Alexandrina and other local groups to improve the organization of youth activism, through volunteerism, youth activities, or networking opportunities across a selection of 10 Arab countries.

Since 2006, Mr. A-Dhafri has served as a consultant and trainer for many NGOs and SCOs in Yemen as the Development House.

He is also the first Yemeni trainer in New Media Web 2.0 especially for people who live with HIV/AIDS and female activists.

He has attended numerous conferences about youth leadership development and New Media in the United States, Italy, Jordan, Morocco, Tunisia, Lebanon, and Yemen.

Mr. Al-Dhafri is hoping to expand his knowledge of Web 2.0 skills as a way to sharpen his advocacy and grassroots organizing skills. His blog is http://www.fat7i.com
