Shawqi Hassan Saeed Abdu, a 27 years old resident of Al-Jabana village, worked for daily wages and relied on his motorcycle as a source of income for his family. Shawqi is married and a father of four children, being the sole breadwinner for them. Before the intervention of #Nahda_Makers Organization, Shawqi had social roles where he leveled and compacted the Aqaba Road using the tools available to him and without any compensation.
