Fahimah Ssemanda Public Health Professional | Crisis Management Specialist | YALI Alumna | Researcher at Operation Funda Fundisa Institute. As a dedicated public health professional with a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Sciences and extensive experience in Monitoring and Evaluation, I have a proven track record of driving impactful initiatives in high-risk environments. With five years of hands-on experience in diverse sectors—including public health, education, and humanitarian aid—I have effectively led programs aimed at improving health outcomes and fostering community resilience. My journey includes significant contributions to organizations like the African Medical Students Association, where I supported health education campaigns, and PCOS Challenge, where I conducted research and enhanced program effectiveness through data analysis and content creation. As the founder of the AquaCare Initiative, I am committed to providing sustainable water solutions in rural Africa, utilizing innovative technology to address pressing water challenges. I have honed my skills in project management, strategic communication, and stakeholder engagement through roles with The Council for Young Africans and Operation Funda Fundisa Institute. My work has consistently led to measurable improvements, such as a 30% increase in student performance at Greenwich International Schools and a 45% boost in classroom engagement through feedback mechanisms. As a YALI alumna in Civic Leadership, I leverage my experiences to advocate for marginalized communities and contribute to meaningful change. I am passionate about collaborating with international organizations, such as the United Nations and the World Health Organization, to create healthier, more resilient communities globally.

During my internship with PCOS Challenge, I was responsible for several critical tasks that contributed to the organization’s public health efforts and operational efficiency:
Research and Data Analysis: I conducted comprehensive literature reviews on polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), helping to compile up-to-date research that informed program development and advocacy efforts. This involved analyzing relevant studies and synthesizing findings to support evidence-based interventions.
Program Monitoring and Evaluation: I played a key role in monitoring the effectiveness of educational programs aimed at improving health outcomes for women with PCOS. This included collecting participant feedback, tracking program engagement, and evaluating overall impact to ensure alignment with the organization’s goals.
Database Management: I was responsible for updating and maintaining the organization’s database, ensuring that it contained accurate and current information. I added new contacts and refined existing entries to support improved communication and outreach with stakeholders and participants.
Content Creation: I assisted in developing content for PCOS Challenge’s educational platforms, including informational materials for their website, social media, and newsletters. This content focused on increasing awareness and providing valuable health information for women with PCOS.
These responsibilities allowed me to refine my skills in research, M&E, database management, and content creation, while contributing to the organization’s mission to enhance health outcomes for women affected by PCOS.
