Reema Diab

This week, 2019 fellow Reema Diab graduated 70 women from her
organization’s 2021 Artificial Intelligence Training Project, supporting them
in making their own products using innovative tools. Reema is the founder
and CEO of Galaxy Organization for Technology, an IT non- profit that
empowers women and youth with STEM skills.
The AI training was implemented in partnership with Jordan’s Ministry of
Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, the European Union and
Plan International. For three months, the cohort of women in Al-Wehdat
refugee camp learned about AI and used 3D printers and laser cutting
machines; this was the first time an NGO in Jordan had access to 3D printing
technology for its participants. With the technology, the women made art,
products out of wood and more to sell and create income. Reema is
currently seeking resources to establish a 3D printing lab within Al-Wehdat
camp so women can more easily access the tools and create sustainable
income.​
