Amel (Dr) is a medical doctor by training and has worked in the Benishangul region as a general practitioner at Pawe General Hospital. This experience opened her eyes to the health challenges that vulnerable groups of the population especially women face.

At PSI Ethiopia, Dr. Amel primarily works with underserved population groups with a high risk of exposure to various diseases including HIV/AIDS, STI, and Cervical Cancer.

Her work involves providing comprehensive health care services tailored to the population’s specific needs. These services include HIV self-tests, establishing and running multi-purpose Drop-in-Centers (DIC) for vulnerable populations, and introducing digital solutions suitable for serving the target groups.
