we are not numbers

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

Zina Nassar

  • Gaza Strip

Zina Nassar loves life and photography and aspires to become a journalist.

During the war, she was displaced, lost her home, and was deprived of her right to education. Yet, she remained strong and courageous, managing to complete the eleventh grade despite the ongoing war and passing successfully. Now, she is preparing for her final high school exams (Tawjihi), undeterred by the hardships she has faced. Her dreams and ambitions are greater than any obstacle.

Zina strives to make her voice heard worldwide, to tell the story of Gaza, its people, and the dreams of its youth. Her message to the world: “Never stop speaking about Gaza and the suffering of its people.”
