    Fadel Dawod — Photojournalist

    I am an Egyptian photojournalist with a passion for documenting stories that matter. I began my journey in photojournalism at the age of 17 at Al-Masry Al-Youm, one of Egypt's largest independent newspapers, covering major historical events and honing my skills. My work focuses on exploring customs, lifestyles, and values within diverse communities, with a strong emphasis on social justice, identity, and the experiences of marginalized groups facing exile, displacement, and forced migration.
