And on that journey she lived in a refugee camp, learned multiple languages, volunteered and qualified in many areas of social work. She talks about the dignity and respect that are so important for people , especially those in vulnerable situations. Jawaahir is kind, hard working and full of integrity and has lived a life of service and support for others.
