Bio
Nafisa Ferdous
I've had the pleasure of working with Sally over the years, first at the CREA gender and sexuality institute in Turkey and later though various research and advocacy projects. I recently invited Sally to be a speaker on feminist movements and digital rights for a global intergenerational feminist advocacy project called the Feminist Action Lab. She is a highly knowledgeable feminist researcher and rights specialist with excellent strategic and communications skills. She's also a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend her for her analysis/technical expertise as well as her work ethic.

I know Sally in person since 2019 through her advisory work at FRIDA, but I learned about her work years before that. I never stop being impressed by the depth and intentionality of Sally´s movement-building work. As a community organizer and activist, her contributions and strategic thinking are invaluable to me. In 2020-2022 I had the absolute pleasure of working closer through AWID´s young feminist mobilization work. Sally has shown sharpness of mind and spirit in the process, and she is my go-to person and a political thought partner. She is a brilliant thinker who pours her heart and knowledge into collaborative work. I wholeheartedly recommend Sally as a team member any organisation would dream to have!
