As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Driven to support and resettle refugees of wars or natural disasters, Ms. Canawati ensures that International Rescue Committee Finance Policies and Procedures are aligned with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) Compliance Requirements aiming to streamline IRC Operations and processes worldwide to enhance efficiency and ensure compliance with donor regulations as the associate director of finance policy and contract readiness for the International Rescue Committee, where she previously served as a finance policy and procedures consultant. Before joining the Committee, Ms. Canawati worked in similar executive roles with Catholic Relief Services Jhpiego, and IMA World Health.

During the early stages of her career, Ms. Canawati gained valuable expertise in financial management and analysis with Diyar Consortium, an Evangelical Lutheran-based nongovernmental organization in Palestine and Catholic Relief Services in JWBG. An expert in her field, she earned a bachelor's degree in business administration with a minor in marketing from Bethlehem University in Palestine in 1998. Subsequently, Ms. Canawati expanded her professional knowledge, completing a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and a Master of Arts in Regional Development, Planning, and Management from Universitat Dortmund in Germany.

Alongside her work, Ms. Canawati contributes to her community through Florida International University's College of Business, where she serves as the program adviser for the Women in Leadership Program.
