Founder & Principal Consultant

Mahmoud Hussein Adam

Senior Humanitarian and Rural Development Leader

MHA is led by extensive experience in humanitarian assistance, rural development, programme leadership, organizational development, capacity strengthening, resource mobilization and evidence-based planning.

Institutions should become stronger because a consultant worked with them—not more dependent on the consultant.
