Dana Hawwash

Dana was born and raised as a Palestinian in Jerusalem. She is a part-time independent consultant for the World Health Organisation and GIZ working on nutrition projects in different languages. She has obtained my PhD at Ghent University working on ethics in nutrition research including research integrity, conflict of interest and priority setting in research.

Beyond the professional realm, she is a certified yoga and meditation teacher and the owner of The Playful Shift company, which fosters well-being. Dreaming of being sustained and independent in the next two years.

Dana is also passionate about orchestrating #RegensUnite gathering that facilitates the exchange of ideas on regenerative solutions, using open space technology over two days. She has co-organised two gatherings in Brussels and London.

She is thrilled to be involved in a conscious project that tackles sensitive topics head-on, engaging everyone to foster dialogue and ensure everyone’s wellbeing. Let’s remember we all have indigenous roots and celebrate cultural rituals through deep listening and meaningful conversation!
