we are not numbers

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

Haya Ihab Sisalem

    Haya Ihab Sisalem is studying English and French literature at Al-Azhar University. She loves languages and can speak Arabic, English, and a little bit of French. Haya aspires to  become a published writer who through her words lets others see what is going on with the Palestinian people, especially children and women, because of the occupation. She also hopes to become a translator and to work for a French institute. She describes herself as “an ambitious person who wants to travel around the world to discover it.” She lives by Mahatma Gandhi’s words: “be the change you wish to see in the world.”
