Ali Mohammed Mujawar (Arabic: علي محمد مجور; born 26 April 1953) served as Prime Minister of Yemen between 7 April 2007 and 10 December 2011, and prior as electricity minister.[2]

Following the anti-government uprising in Yemen, President Ali Abdullah Saleh fired Mujawar and the other members of the Cabinet of Yemen on 20 March 2011, but asked them to remain until a new government was formed.[3] During the uprising, on 3 June 2011, Mujawar was seriously injured in the same attack which critically wounded President Saleh. He underwent treatment in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.[4]

On 29 August 2012 Yemeni former President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi appointed Ali Mujawar as Yemen's Permanent Representative to the United Nations in Geneva.[5]
