About me
Hey, welcome! My name is Omezzine Khelifa and this is my official website 🙂 Here you will find my latest and oldest news in English, French and Arabic, the three languages of my most fluent expression. I hope you will enjoy the cultural mess 😀 By the way, I am an amateur actress, singer, and guitar player seriously starting to shift my career towards acting in movies. I have been initially trained as a Telecommunications engineer but life has awakened the activist in me, then put me in the shoes of a politician. Today I am the founder and CEO of “Mobdiun – Creative Youth”, a social impact & civic innovation organization that inspires youth to lead change and help build a peaceful democracy in Tunisia. Mobdiun uses mainly art as an educational tool: theatre, music, dance, and painting.
