Eman Mohammed's biography

At a glance

  • Youngest female photojournalist in Gaza
  • TED Senior Fellow and Gwen Ifill Fellow
  • Photographer documenting empathy across divides
Eman Mohammed is a photojournalist who uses her camera to dismantle the barriers between people who believe they are enemies. Her work proves that a single face-to-face encounter can transform fear into empathy. Mohammed became the youngest female photojournalist in Gaza at 19, covering the human aftermath of war. A TED Senior Fellow since 2019 and recipient of the 2024 Gwen Ifill Fellowship, her photographs have appeared in The Guardian, The Washington Post, and CNN, and are held in the collection of the British Museum. Eman's expertise lies in documenting the precise moment when bias gives way to understanding. Her projects capture subjects' faces before and after honest conversation, making visible the internal shift that occurs when someone meets the "other" for the first time. This work offers organizations and communities a practical framework for recognizing how fear drives division and how direct human connection can override it. Audiences leave Eman's talks with a clearer understanding of how "us versus them" thinking operates in everyday life, concrete examples of how prejudice dissolves through personal encounter, and a renewed sense of optimism grounded in documented, real-world transformation rather than abstract idealism. Book Eman Mohammed to give your audience both the evidence and the inspiration that bridging divides is not only possible but already happening.

Why we recommend booking Eman

Eman Mohammed brings documented evidence from conflict zones showing how direct human contact breaks down prejudice, making her particularly valuable for organisations navigating polarised teams or stakeholder groups.
