It's a great pleasure to recommend Haidar. We have been colleagues in the same NGO for approximately 2 years. Haidar was truly valuable asset to the team; By his team spirit that involves creating sense of unity, trust, and shared purposes among the team members, everyone was feeling familiar with working with him. He was always bringing an infectious energy to his work. His role and intervention with Children from different nationality and religions, was meaningful; He had the full capacity to provide the needed psycho-social support that aimed to improve outcomes for children and preventing escalating risks. His intervention and support reflected the positive changes and empowerment in the children's state and well-being. Haidar' continuous willingness to improve his knowledge and experiences through attending trainings, conferences, and meetings, were reflected and observed through his hard work and his professional intervention. I'm highly confident that Haidar was and still has the full ability to be a great asset and added value to a cooperative team. Sincerely, Layal Badran
