we are not numbers

emerging writers from Palestine tell their stories and advocate for their human rights

Al-Orjwan Shurrab

  • Gaza Strip

Al-Orjwan is a translator and writer. After she studied English literature at the Islamic University of Gaza, she worked as a project manager and translator for a number of organizations; that’s when she first explored the world of WORDS. Al-Orjwan discovered how powerful a word can be and how it can affect both the writer and the reader.

Today, she is a passionate reader of Arabic literature. Her love for the two languages helps her “mix and match: between the two forms of expression. To her, reading, writing, drawing and painting are the most powerful remedies to life’s challenges.
