Fatima-Zahra is a psychologist, poet, and advisor whose work focuses on rethinking personal and collective narratives and examining how they shape and influence our worldviews and systems.

She weaves together a decade of experience in systems mapping, program design, and conversational leadership to create frameworks and spaces that challenge assumptions and catalyze strategic, informed action.

She co-leads the Future50 Initiative, serves on the Lancet-LSHTM Commission on the Emotional Determinants of Health, and has previously co-founded a mental health social enterprise whose programs and curricula impacted 7 million students in Morocco. She additionally served a Co-Chair of the Expert Committee at Orygen Global and on the boards of various organizations.
A sought-after speaker, she has addressed audiences at the UK Parliament, TEDx, the Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos, and the IAYMH Conference, among others.

When she’s not immersed in her work, you’ll find her writing her manuscript, tending to her houseplants, or seeking stillness with the wind and a horizon in sight.
