we are not numbers

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

Nour Nizar Abu Sultan

    Nour Nizar Abu Sultan is from the Gaza Strip. She graduated from Al-Azhar University, where she majored in the English language and literature. She is a voracious novel reader with a knack for content writing.

    She says: “You can describe me as a wanderer, but never as lost; an over-thinker, but never as worn out; and a future-phobic, but never as someone who can be dragged down. I own my present and have high hopes for my future.”

    She aspires  to resume her higher education abroad and to have the chance to explore the world outside Gaza. “Palestine is my issue, and that will always encourage me to hold onto it forever.”

    Nour.

    my work

    I jumped at the first job offer after graduation but it was less than what I wanted. I had to face the consequences.
