Khawla Ksiksi

Khawla Ksiksi is a 28-year-old activist and attorney by training who works at the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation in Tunis, where she manages a program on environmental justice. She is deeply involved in feminist anti-racist intersectional activism, which began for her after the revolution when she joined Mnemty (my dream), an association that fights against all forms of discrimination, especially racial. She has forged her knowledge on human rights, associative projects, advocacy, and political training during these years and is a part of a radical feminist informal movement called Falgatna (we are fed up). In January 2020 she united her feminist activism with her anti-racist struggle and became a cofounder with Huda Mzioudet and Maha Abdelhamid among others of the group Voice of Black Tunisian Women, a nonprofit fighting Tunisian racism.
