Om Basmah Bint Saud

Princess Basmah bint Saud bin Abdulaziz al Saud is the youngest daughter of King Saud, who ruled Saudi Arabia from 1953-64. She spent the first twenty years of her life studying and traveling the world. When civil war broke out in Lebanon in 1976, she traveled with her mother to Britain and completed her studies there. In 1983, she and her mother moved to Syria, where she studied medicine, psychology and English literature at Beirut Arab University. She started her career in media and journalism in 2006 when she started writing articles for several newspapers including Al-Madina, Al-Hayat, Al-Ahram Al-Masri and Al-Sayadity magazine. She also appeared in articles for international media such as The Independent, Berfabl, Argeninin, Yo Donna magazine, Vanity Fair and Huffington Post. Her articles have focused on local and Arab social affairs. She is very interested in citizens' concerns, social problems and developed ideas to solve these problems within her articles. During her stay in the UK from 2011-14, and after a period of research into humanitarian issues and concerns, she launched the Fourth Way Act. The Fourth Way Law received accreditation from the European Parliament in 2014 as an alternative constitution capable of succeeding in the 21st century. This constitution aims to combat the causes of poverty, the roots of tension and division, and to tackle global public laws. It is designed to evolve and keep up with modern developments. During her stay in London, Princess Basmah established a global humanitarian foundation, The Lanterns, which brings together international personalities from every intellectual, social, economic and scientific field and serves as a platform for global relations serving humanity and addressing contemporary issues. Through Lanterns, Global United Research and Analysis (GURA) was founded, a research center specializing in developing long-term solutions and strategies for companies and institutions. In 2013, she visited several places in the Middle East, including Syrian refugee camps in Jordan and Lebanon, shedding light on the lives of Syrian refugees and helping to find solutions to their crises.
