Abdel Aziz Oumar El-bashi is the Chief Operations Officer at Safe Haven Foundation, where he leads programs and partnerships focused on digital safety, mental wellbeing, and inclusive civic participation. Trained in law and with over six years of experience in digital communications and strategic engagement, his work sits at the intersection of digital rights, online harm, and democratic participation.

He is a member of the UNESCO Media and Information Literacy (MIL) Alliance, contributing to initiatives that strengthen critical thinking, counter disinformation, and promote responsible digital citizenship. His work emphasizes that digital inclusion must extend beyond access to ensure safe, dignified, and wellbeing-centered digital spaces, particularly for women, youth, and communities affected by technology-facilitated abuse.

In 2025, Abdel Aziz served as an observer during Cameroon’s presidential and regional elections, gaining first-hand insight into how digital platforms shape civic discourse, voter confidence, and participation. This experience informs his advocacy on the impact of online harassment, disinformation, and toxic digital environments on civic engagement and mental health.

Beyond his professional role, he brings strong youth leadership and governance experience. He previously served as Chapter Executive Vice President of Junior Chamber International (JCI) Yaounde Universities and was recognized as Best Member for the first half of 2020 in JCI Cameroon. He is a Bronze, Silver, and Gold Award holder of the Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award, reflecting sustained commitment to leadership, service, and personal development. He is also a member of the Young African Leaders Initiative (YALI) and an Alumnus of the Aspire Institute Training Program, where he further strengthened his leadership, strategy, and impact-driven practice.

Through his work, Abdel Aziz champions inclusive digital civic spaces where individuals can participate freely and safely, without fear of harm or exclusion. He is particularly committed to advancing approaches that integrate digital literacy, psychosocial support, and survivor-centered strategies into civic engagement and democratic processes.

Christopher has over twenty years of experience in payments, with deep exposure to how merchants, processors, and platforms navigate fraud, risk, and compliance requirements. He also spent five years building a startup focused on improving how merchants achieve and maintain PCI compliance, gaining firsthand experience with both the technical and operational challenges of regulated environments.

Although that company did not succeed, the time spent building it provided direct insight into how compliance frameworks work in practice and where they fail under real-world conditions.

Christopher now works in workforce and staffing operations at Express Employment Professionals, where documentation, verification, and trust directly impact hiring decisions, reimbursements, and employee outcomes. His perspective is grounded in practical experience across payments, compliance, and workforce systems rather than academic theory.

Dave is an integrative lawyer, mediator, and coach based in Durango, Colorado, where he has lived and worked for over a decade with his wife and two sons.

During his first nine years as an attorney, Dave represented individuals and businesses in civil litigation, employment disputes, and business planning. After working on hundreds of cases in private negotiations and in courts and agencies, he began to see a consistent pattern: legal conflict often escalates not because of bad people, but because of breakdowns in communication, misaligned expectations, and agreements built around fear rather than clarity.

In 2023, Dave began shifting his practice toward early conflict resolution and values-based legal strategy. In 2024, he and his partner renamed their firm Aspen Grove Integrative Law to reflect a commitment to helping clients resolve disputes peacefully and design agreements that align with mission and integrity.

Today, Dave works with founders, leaders, and growing companies to prevent escalation, strengthen alignment, and approach contracts and workplace conflict consciously — without losing sight of the values that inspired their work in the first place.

When he’s not working, Dave can be found fly fishing, backpacking, or traveling with his family in their 1997 Eurovan — pursuits that remind him that clarity, patience, and steady leadership matter when navigating uncertain terrain.
