Nooreen Rahemtullah

As an Arts Educator with multiple identities, Nooreen believes in the power of arts and education as a force of social change. With a background in theatre, Nooreen’s creative work explores the intersections of identity and social justice. Working in the Middle  East for the past 7 years has allowed her to cultivate various teaching and learning methods specifically when it comes to gender in education.

Beyond her experience, Nooreen holds a Masters of Education in Educational Leadership and Policy. Her academic work explored looking at gender in policy, decolonizing the Ontario Arts Curriculums, and anti-colonial pedagogies in the classroom.

As an advocate of education through experience, she believes in the power and necessity of oral histories as a way of being and learning. She is a fierce critical feminist of reclaiming narratives of pop culture and within her faith.
