Before coming to Oxford Dana worked for the Queen Rania Foundation for Education and Development in Amman, Jordan working with the Ministry of Education reforming policies in the public education sector and the development of subject-specific teaching standards.
Dana’s main focus has been on encouraging the use of data and evidence within the design of education policies. Dana intends to return to Jordan to pilot and institutionalise “design-thinking” in the Ministry’s operating model.
