She holds a master’s degree in psychology and began her career as a clinical psychologist in a psychiatric clinic in Jordan where she worked from 1968 until 1971.

She has coordinated national campaigns for enhancing women’s participation in elections in Jordan (1996) and in Palestine (2002-2005) and is a board-member of the UNESCO designated Palestinian Women’s Research and Documentation Center (PWRDC), which is dedicated to developing documentation and research on the condition and status of Palestinian women and girls and gender issues (2004-2007).
