Last week Rafa was awarded her PhD subject to some minor changes being made to her thesis.

Rafa’s PhD is titled “A critical analysis of the experiences of female business owners in the development and management of tourism-related micro and small handicraft businesses in an Islamic society: The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan”

Her PhD is about the power of structures ‘external socio-cultural-religious and business environment’ on the experiences of women handicraft business owners in developing and managing their businesses in a collectivist, Muslim, traditional and patriarchal society ‘The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan’.

Congratulations to Rafa on this achievement!
