HRH Princess Dina Mired's Bio
HRH Princess Dina Mired has led the King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF) in Jordan as Director General since 2003. Knowing first-hand the difficult experience of cancer when her son was diagnosed with Leukemia at the age of two, this experience was instrumental in both preparing and directing Princess Dina in her efforts to combat cancer.
In her capacity as Director, she founded and developed the “Fundraising and Development” Department of the Foundation making it now one of the best fundraising institutions in Jordan and the region. KHCF has succeeded in enlisting every segment of society in the fight against cancer and is now the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against cancer in Jordan. Princess Dina also has restructured and expanded KHCF’s Health Care Program for cancer coverage.
As one of the leading figures advocating early detection and screening of breast cancer for women in Jordan, Princess Dina is also the Honorary Chairperson of the National Steering Committee for Jordan's National Breast Cancer Program, and is the Honorary Member of the Mediterranean Task Force for Cancer Control in Italy.
The King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF) is a free standing independent non-governmental, not-for-profit institution founded in 1997 by a Royal decree to combat cancer in Jordan, and the Middle East region.
KHCF is the legal umbrella organization responsible for the King Hussein Cancer Center (KHCC), the Foundation's medical arm.
