Diana Moukalled

Diana Moukalled is a journalist and documentary producer/director with 25 years of experience covering hot zones and producing stories in the Middle East. Her war coverage has included Lebanon, Afghanistan (2001), Iraq (2003), and Yemen (2015). She has produced over 50 hours of documentaries addressing socio-political issues in the region and around the world, including topics related to women, minorities, human interest stories, and many others. She began her career in 1993 as a general news reporter at Future TV, covering news, political, and social issues. In 1999, she started working on a documentary series called Bil Ain Almujaradah, which covered sensitive political and social topics in conflict zones. The documentaries shed light on issues rarely addressed by Arab media, particularly those concerning women, minorities, and democracy. In 2010, Diana became Head of the Future TV website and social media pages. In 2017, she, along with two other founders, launched Daraj.com, an independent media platform that addresses controversial issues often underreported in the Arab region. Daraj was the only Arab media platform to participate in the Paradise Papers investigation by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ).
