I am Raouf BEN HAJ KHALIFA, a seasoned Project Development and Management Engineer with over seven years of diverse professional experience. Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in interpersonal communication, collective work, and effective project management. In my current role as Support Manager at Lab'ess, an incubator within the international PULSE group, I play a crucial role in coaching civil society actors to implement sustainable development projects. Simultaneously, I design and facilitate training courses, implement support and training programs for ongoing projects, and provide crucial individual support to enhance the skills of association beneficiaries.

In my prior role as a Monitoring and Evaluation Officer at I Watch Organisation, an independent non-profit organization in Tunisia, I played a key role in exposing financial and administrative corruption while promoting transparency. My responsibilities included creating monitoring dashboards, updating logical frameworks for projects, and leading workshops and training sessions in Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning. My expertise extended to data analysis, evidenced by my role as a "Data Analyst" during election observation missions funded by NDI and USAID. I also contributed to projects funded by the European Union and supported by the German Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs, showcasing my proficiency in handling diverse and high-stakes initiatives.

My professional journey began as a Project Assistant at The Regional Environmental Center for Central and Eastern Europe, where I supported the Water SUM project, focusing on the Sustainable Use of Transboundary Water Resources and Water Security Management. My tasks ranged from data collection and analysis to administrative and logistical assistance in workshops and training sessions. Armed with a National Engineering Diploma in Rural Economy, specialized in Project Development and Management, I have a solid educational foundation.

I am proud to be an IFC - LPI Certified Trainer since 2023, adding another layer of expertise to my profile. My skill set encompasses project management, Monitoring & Evaluation, data analysis, leadership, emotional intelligence, and effective communication. Proficient in tools such as Microsoft Office, MS Project, and Power BI, I combine technical expertise with a strategic mindset. Fluency in Arabic (my native language), French (full professional capacity), and English (professional competence) enhances my versatility.

In conclusion, I emerge as a multifaceted professional ready to contribute my wealth of experience and skills to future international development initiatives. My dynamic background, passion for project management, and commitment to fostering positive change position me as a valuable asset in any endeavor I undertake.
