Meet ALWIS Volunteers

Amel Makour; Volunteer in Communication Team

I am a graduate with a master’s degree in Biochemistry of Nutrition from Mouloud Mammeri University of Tizi-Ouzou. I aim to pursue my Ph.D. studies in the field of nutrition and health. Through my academic path, I was privileged to live amazing experiences by volunteering in two associations. Not only it revealed my human side but it also nudged me on a personnel level. From a mission to another, I was stretching out of my comfort zone. I was unlocking my potential in new areas; public speaking, teaching, bringing creative ideas, and implementing them.
Volunteering within ALWIS has come across an imminent transition in my life which is post-graduation. No matter how small, crazy, or big the idea is, they listened to me. More importantly, they gave me the space to make it happen with a strong belief that I could do it. Hence, they let my personality and creativity shine and rise through content creation.

Wissal Nada Sengouga; Volunteer with ALWIS MDs Community

I'm a final year M.D candidate, a science digital content creator and advocate for women’s and youth empowerment.​ I decided to join ALWIS because it’s the 1st network that is dedicated to women in STEMM in Algeria.
​I hope to help Algerian women in Medicine reach their full potential by volunteering with ALWIS.

Ahlem Bakelli; Volunteer with ALWIS Biology Community

Hello there! It's Ahlem, a Master’s student in biotechnology and molecular pathologies at USTHB and a current member in many communities in diverse fields, including “ALWIS Biology Community”. I chose ALWIS because I saw the shiny future to enhance and improve STEM in Algeria especially "biology" which keeps struggling day by day to impose itself and be more valuable. Through ALWIS biology community, I aim to learn more about biotechnology and the different technologies, to develop scientific research in Algeria, and of course to meet and get to know amazing ambitious Algerian women in STEM.

Anfel Bouderbala; Volunteer with ALWIS MDs Community

I'm an M.D Candidate at Batna2 University. I had many experiences during my educational path at university where I volunteered with associations and clubs and I had amazing experiences. From volunteering to training to organizing to teaching, and this added a lot to my personality: leadership, public speaking, teamwork, time management. Moreover, I participated in online educational programs (Summer University) and training (research capacity building courses). I'm volunteering with ALWIS because I hope to help Algerian women in medecine and to encourage them to be skilled medical students in both aspects: clinical practicing and medical research.
