Ashwaq Moharram (Arabic: أشواق محرم;) is a Yemeni physician and activist, noted for her work dealing with starvation in the Yemeni city of Hudaydah.
Moharram is married with 2 children. In 2016 after working as a doctor for twenty years she was named one of the BBC 100 Women for her achievements.[1] She was then living alone in Humaydah as her husband had taken their children to Jordan. Moharram has said of her work: "I'm seeing the same thing I used to watch on TV when the famine unfolded in Somalia. I never thought I would see this in Yemen." Moharram has worked for numerous international aid organisations, but since 2015 has worked independently, delivering medicine and food in her car, serving as a mobile clinic.[2] [3]
