These experiences provided exposure to different healthcare environments and patient populations.

Following his clinical training, he worked in the private healthcare sector in southern Tunisia, where he further developed his clinical and patient-care experience. This period strengthened his understanding of healthcare delivery in different geographical and socioeconomic settings.

His subsequent engagement with humanitarian and global health activities broadened his professional perspective beyond clinical practice. These experiences contributed to his understanding of population health, health inequalities, healthcare systems, and the importance of context-sensitive approaches to health interventions.
