Introduction
I am an interdisciplinary urban researcher who works on the intersection of cities, technology, and justice, with a focus on sustainability, visualization, digitalization, communication, and mediatization. Although an Egyptian-born and raised woman, given my international experiences across Africa, Europe, the USA, and Asia, I define myself as a cross-border global citizen who is inspired by local stories. My personal vision is to tackle global inequalities by producing and transferring impactful knowledge for the design of sustainable and equitable smart cities.
