About

Profile

A journalist’s eye, a writer’s craft, and an advocate’s conviction.

Abeer Yasir, Sudanese journalist and peace advocate
Abeer Yasir · Sudan

Abeer Yasir is a Sudanese journalist and opinion writer whose work sits at the intersection of political analysis, conflict commentary, and peace advocacy. Writing across print and digital outlets since 2017, she has built a distinctive voice known for confronting Sudan’s war with moral clarity, naming its costs in human and institutional terms rather than in the language of diplomacy alone.

Professional practice

Her experience spans political opinion, long-form commentary, print features, digital media, and short-form video analysis. She works in Arabic and English, speaking to Sudanese and international audiences without losing the specificity of either.

Equally at home in Arabic and English, without either being a translation of the other.
