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

Sara Tayseer

Gaza Strip

Sara Tayseer is a Palestinian writer and translator graduated from the Islamic University of Gaza. She writes about life in Gaza, telling stories of resilience, loss, and the small moments of hope that survive even in the hardest times.

For her, writing is a way to honor her martyred brother Malik, to keep his memory alive, and to share the voices of people who might otherwise go unheard.
