SPEAKING
Translating complex issues into powerful stories that move hearts and minds and inspire action.
Yasmin’s talks and workshops weave together personal narratives, journalism and activism — from exploring how we shift attitudes around migration, to how storytelling can transform culture, or how to challenge stereotypes of the Middle East. Whether addressing global development leaders, festival audiences or creative professionals, Yasmin brings emotional intelligence, intellectual clarity and warmth to every engagement.
She regularly speaks at literary and cultural events, universities and international organisations including United Nations agencies, Facebook, Google and NGOs. She has led workshops on food and culture for organisations including Soho House, the Oxford Cultural Collective and Silversea Cruises, and enjoys connecting with audiences across the world.
Yasmin can give talks on topics such as:
The Power of Storytelling: How Human Stories Change the World
Beyond Borders: Rethinking Migration and Identity
The Art of Change: How to Turn Conviction into Campaigns
Breaking Bread in a Broken World: Stories of Hope & Resilience from the Middle East
Becoming Ourselves: Women, Identity and the Stories We Tell
What We Don’t Talk About: Fertility, Pregnancy Loss and the Making of a Mother
