Mira is a Lebanese born, queer migrant who grew up in Western Sydney on Gadigal Country. She completed her Bachelors in Gender Studies and International Relations at UNSW before moving back to Lebanon where she spent 10 years working in the humanitarian and development sector, focusing on human rights for gender diverse persons and people experiencing displacement. She completed a Masters in Development Studies at the University of Melbourne. As a person who doesn’t have lived experience of being intersex, Mira values learning from persons who do as the experts, and brings her operations leadership and skills to support their work towards a world where people with innate variations of sex characteristics have full and complete bodily autonomy.
Mira's work was instrumental in InterLink achieving accreditation under the National Safety and Quality Digital Mental Health (NSQDMH) Standards. Mira managed the unification with IPSA, ensuring the transition process was smooth for staff, board and community as we moved towards a whole, united and cohesive organisation.
