Fatima Al-Jamil
Global Correspondent
Fatima Al-Jamil began her career as a foreign correspondent in the Middle East and South Asia, covering conflict and human rights for international news agencies. She found herself repeatedly drawn to stories about the economic realities underpinning these regions, particularly the impact of the garment and textile industries on local communities. Her Peabody-nominated series on the water usage of denim manufacturing in Pakistan exposed the environmental and human cost of fast fashion. Fatima's reporting is characterized by deep empathy, rigorous fact-finding, and a commitment to telling the stories of those most affected by the industry, for better or for worse.
