Rumaitha Al Busaidi
An award-winning radio presenter and sportswoman, Rumaitha is credited with being the first female football analyst in the Arab world; a feat that she only could achieve due to her passion for the sport and being part of Oman’s women football team. In her efforts to encourage more women into sports, Rumaitha became the youngest Omani woman to step foot on the South Pole and is on a bid to become the first hijabi to conquer the seven volcanic summits.
Witnessing a substantial gap to address seawater intrusion changing the Omani agricultural landscape, Rumaitha worked with public Omani stakeholders on the concept of integrated aquaculture systems, which is now adopted as a national project with a goal to impact 50 farms by 2020. Consequently, Rumaitha serves as vice chair of the food manufacturing committee of the National Program for Enhancing Economic Diversification (Tanfeedh) that explores ways to diversify the Omani economy away from oil and gas.
