She is the author of several books, including Between Two Worlds: Escape From Tyranny: Growing Up in the Shadow Of Saddam and The Other Side of War: Women's Stories of Survival & Hope.

Early life and education

Salbi was born in 1969[1] in Baghdad, Iraq.[2] In 1971, she moved to the Mansour district with her parents.[3] At the time of her birth, her mother worked as an educator while her father was an airline pilot.[2] Her memoir describes her mother Alia as secular,[4] while according to The Daily Beast she was Shia, and raised Salbi "undogmatically".[5] When Salbi was 11, her father became the personal pilot for Saddam Hussein, who then regularly visited the family at their home while he was president of Iraq.[6][3] The Iran-Iraq War occurred during her childhood, including missile attacks on Baghdad.[3][6] She studied languages at an Iraqi university.[7]

At the age of 19, Salbi was sent to the United States[6] after her mother became concerned about the attention Salbi received from Hussein.[6][8] Her family arranged for her to marry in the United States.[9] She left the marriage after her husband became abusive[10] but could not return to Iraq due to the start of the First Gulf War.[8] She moved to Washington, D.C., worked as a translator, and married Palestinian American lawyer Amjad Atallah.[11][7] In 1996, she became an US citizen.[5]

Salbi completed her bachelor's degree in sociology and women's studies at George Mason University in 1996, and a master's degree in development studies at the London School of Economics in 2001.[12][13]

While studying at George Mason University, Salbi learned about the systematic rape during the Bosnian war.[14] In 1993, Salbi and Atallah launched Women for Women International.[15] She began serving as president, initially with a focus on supporting for women in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia.[11][7] The program linked sponsors in North America with women in Bosnia.[16] The organization was led by Salbi from 1993 to 2011, during which time its humanitarian and development efforts helped 153,000 women and distributed over $42 million in direct aid and loans.[17] Among the countries Women for Women International focused on were Afghanistan, Bosnia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kosovo, Nigeria, Rwanda and Sudan.[16]

The organization began working in Iraq in 2003.[18] After visiting Iraq, Salbi contributed to a report the role of women in post-war Iraq published by both Women Waging Peace and the Woodrow Wilson Center.[9][19] She later testified before the United States Congress about the report.[19]

By 2006, Salbi had appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show six times to discuss the organization.[18] In 2006, Women for Women International was awarded the $1.5 million Hilton Humanitarian Prize.[6][20] In 2008, Women for Women International produced a report with an introduction by Salbi, based on 2004[21] and 2007 surveys of Iraqi women, including Kurdish, Shi'i, Sunni, Christian, Turkmen, and Sabai'i.[22]

Salbi has written and spoken on the use of rape and other forms of violence against women during war. In 1995, President Bill Clinton honoured Salbi at the White House for her humanitarian work.[23] She was also identified as one of Top 100 women activists and campaigners in The Guardian.[24] Salbi was identified as an influential Arab woman by Arabian Business,[25] one of the 100 Global Thinkers in the World by Foreign Policy,[26] one of the Most Influential Women on Twitter, by Fortune (2014),[27] and one of the 100 Most Powerful Arabs by Gulf Business (2019).[28] She was selected as a jury member of The Hilton Humanitarian Prize.[29] Time magazine Innovator of the Month (2005)[30] and was profiled in Time for her pioneering work as philanthropist.[31][32] Salbi sits on the board of directors of Synergos[33] and the International Refugee Assistance Project.[34]

Salbi was honored at a White House ceremony for her work in Bosnia in 1995.[35] She received a Forbes magazine Trailblazer Award in 2005[30] and a Visionary Leadership Award from the International Festival Of Arts & Ideas in 2011.[36] She has honorary doctorates from the University of York (2014),[37] George Mason University (2019)[38] and Glasgow University (2019).[39] She received the Eleanor Roosevelt Val-Kill Award in 2019.[40][41]

In 2015, she launched the TLC Arabia talk show The Calling[8], with Oprah Winfrey appearing on the first show.[11] The show is broadcast in 22 countries[8] in the Middle East and North Africa and focuses on the acknowledgment of Arab and Muslim women.[42][5] Salbi then launched The Zainab Salbi Project, an original series with Huffington Post in 2016[43]; the television shows #MeToo, Now What? with PBS in 2018[44][45]; Through Her Eyes with Zainab Salbi, with Yahoo!
