Nouria Benghabrit-Remaoun (born 5 March 1952) is an Algerian sociologist and researcher who serves in the government of Algeria as Minister of National Education.
Her previous function was director of the National Centre of Research in Social and Cultural Anthropology. She was a member of The Committee for Development Policy (CDP), subsidiary body of the United Nations Economic and Social Council.
As education minister, she favours the use of Darija as the language of education in Algeria. She is noted, along with other government ministers, for seeming “unable to complete a sentence in proper Arabic.”
She is the granddaughter of Si Kaddour Benghabrit’s brother.
