Rawan Osman is a Syrian-born, German activist, content creator and writer who advocates normalization with Israel. Raised in Lebanon and educated in Germany, she studied Islamic and Jewish Studies at Heidelberg University. Her journey—from being raised in an antisemitic environment to becoming a self-described "Arab Zionist"—has inspired her work with organizations like Sharaka, the Center for Peace Communications and the Aseret movement in Israel.
After October 7, Rawan founded “Arabs Ask,” a social media channel to combat the misinformation propagated about Israel and the Jews in the Arab World. She is currently working on a book about her evolving relationship with Judaism and Israel. She is also the main figure in "Tragic Awakening“, a documentary on the roots of antisemitism.
