Ayiko (Solomon) Muhhamed Ali

Project Lead

ABOUT

I, Ayiko Muhammed Ali, the Executive Director of Peace For All Canada (PFAC), am committed to supporting women, youth and children to access the quality of education and social-economic justice. I am fluent in Arabic and have an undergraduate degree in Global Studies and a graduate degree in Human Security and Peacebuilding, which will also allow me to better assist the individuals we are supporting.

​

I’ve spent the last 14 years of my life dedicated to transforming my childhood war trauma into a voice for the voiceless women, youth and children around the world. My portfolio of supporting women, youth and children involves the design and development of new projects and programs and working with key stakeholders. These experiences have assisted me in developing skills in empowering local women, youth and children and initiating innovative, grassroots, social-economic and conflict transformation projects.

In 1998 I started a private practice as a Notary Public in Sofia, Bulgaria.
