Moderator and Master of Ceremonies in Tunisia

I moderate panels, forums and multi-stakeholder workshops, and host official ceremonies, for public institutions, international organisations and companies in Tunisia. I have been on stage and on air since 1988.

Languages

I moderate in French and Arabic. I work in English with international teams, and the briefs, run of show and summaries can be prepared in English.

Formats

  • Panels and forums: briefing the speakers, preparing the questions, managing speaking time.
  • Workshops and seminars: facilitating discussion, reporting back, wrap-up.
  • Ceremonies and launches: run of show, key moments, transitions, award presentations.

Method

  • Before: I work with the organising team on the key messages, the speakers and the run of show.
  • During: I keep time, follow up on answers and move the discussion between the stage and the floor.
  • After: I provide a summary of the discussions and a debrief with the team.

Sectors

International cooperation (EU, GIZ, UNIDO, ILO, IOM, UNDP, AfDB, Expertise France), economic forums, energy, digital, construction, agri-food, employment, culture and media.
