Darien Dawood

Darien is a 17 year-old from Jordan currently studying at school in the 12th Grade. She aspires to specialise in the field of artificial intelligence, and spends her free time skateboarding. One of Darien’s biggest passions is empowering girls and she leads a Girls for a Better Tomorrow Program, as part of the not-for-profit Toward a Better Tomorrow. The main objective of their work is to reach girls and empower them with the knowledge and the necessary tools to protect themselves against violence, and deprivation of education and development. Darien has participated in a number of workshops and activities, which have helped her give strength to help girls in her area.

One action Darien would like everyone to take:

“Follow up Toward a Better Tomorrow’s Facebook page and write articles on my work to raise awareness.”
