Welcome to my website

Since 2013, I have collaborated with an array of international organizations and governmental bodies across multiple countries as a seasoned consultant and trainer in media and communication. My expertise has been instrumental in training over 1,000 journalists and crafting robust communication strategies for key institutions in the MENA region, including ministries and NGOs.

During the Coronavirus pandemic, we witnessed the spread of fake news. This inspired me to write a fact-checking handbook, which was made possible as an open-source publication thanks to the sponsorship of the Friedrich Neumann Foundation.

The “Science Journalists in MENA” community was founded by Dr. Nouha Belaid in October 2022 and has rapidly grown to over 1,000 members, including 450 science journalists from across the MENA region. Our mission extends beyond just disseminating scientific knowledge in the Middle East and Africa—we aim to make a global impact by fostering collaboration between journalists and scientists worldwide.

The community stands out for its commitment to excellence and international reach.
We have hosted influential speakers, including Catherine Offord, Senior Editor of The Scientist; Ben Deighton, Managing Editor of SciDev; and Ehsan Masood, Editor of Editorials at Nature. These thought leaders have contributed to shaping the discourse around science journalism and inspiring our members to elevate their work.

In our biweekly meetings, we bring together diverse international experiences, and we’ve conducted numerous training sessions led by world-class experts. Through our partnership with leading institutions like OpenNotebook, we provide
valuable opportunities for professional development.

Recognizing the crucial role media plays in addressing climate change, we launched an
extensive training program focused on media coverage for COP28. The response was overwhelming, with over 1,000 applications received, and we successfully engaged 400 journalists in the program. This initiative not only enhances the
quality of reporting on urgent environmental issues but also equips journalists to influence public opinion, policy decisions, and drive positive change.

 
The Science Journalists in MENA community is more than just a network—it is a powerful movement, shaping the future of science communication and empowering media professionals across the region.

Leaving behind a collection of scientific articles and books for the betterment of humanity is beautiful. You can view my research on my pages on Researchgate and Academia.

I’m pleased with the scientific legacy I created before age thirty. I am confident that I will continue to publish more books and ensure their unrestricted distribution. Sharing knowledge and wisdom is one of the most beautiful things in life.
Due to my work in science journalism, I was fortunate to receive the weekly Journalism award from Tunisian public radio, which was a great honor.
Amidst the spread of misinformation about coronavirus vaccines on the internet, I took it upon myself to combat this issue by posting a weekly article based on the latest research findings. I also created a video to disseminate accurate vaccine information through social media.
In 2022, WHO and the State of Qatar have teamed up with FIFA on the Healthy 2022 World Cup project. Qatar hosted the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ from 21 November to 18 December 2022. As a media team member, I had the pleasure of handling various responsibilities. These included distributing press releases globally, securing interview opportunities, and pitching an Op-ed piece by Dr. Tedros.

The project aimed to ensure the tournament will be a healthy and safe event and that the measures implemented and lessons learned will support the delivery of healthy and safe mega sporting events. The project’s objectives were to ensure both the delivery and legacy of a healthy and safe FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ by setting the event as an impactful, sustainable, and lasting model that promotes health, security, and well-being integration for future mega sports events.
