Her parents were born in Palestine and fled to the West Bank during the 1948 war. During the 1967 war, Nadia and her family fled to Amman. Whilst she was a school girl, she signed up for the Zahrat, the Fatah youth section for girls, and participated in training for more than 2 years, until the PLO was forced out of Jordan in 1970-71. After high school, she studied English and, after graduation, became a teacher. Nadia was involved in underground leftist politics as well as believing in the importance of struggling for women’s rights. In 1990, she joined the Jordanian Women's Union and was part of a new generation of women who transformed the agenda of the union to prioritise women’s issues, including violence against women. At the time of the interview, Nadia was the director of the JWU. ( en )
