The 2019 Hirak protests that filled Algiers’ streets with millions marked more than a political turning point. According to nytimes.com, the movement was spearheaded by young female activists such as Samira Messouci, a 28-year-old university graduate, and Fella Bouredji, a 25-year-old law student. Their visibility in the protests challenged traditional gender roles and accelerated shifts in Algeria’s economic environment that entrepreneurs and diaspora investors are now navigating.
