Duke University – Master in International Development Policy

Sharif has worked for the last seven years with humanitarian and development organizations in the most insecure areas of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India to build stability, promote peace, and implement development projects. During this time, he gained experience in project management, financial management, human resources management, logistics and supply management, grants and donor contract management, and project monitoring and evaluations.
