}} Kenza Dahmani Tifahi (born 18 November 1980) is an Algerian long-distance runner who competes in track, road and cross country events. She is a six-time participant at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships. At the Mediterranean Games she won two bronze medals in 2009 before taking the 10,000 metres title in 2013. She has also won medals at the All-Africa Games, Pan Arab Games and Arab Athletics Championships. ==Career== Dahmani's first international outings came through the IAAF World Cross Country Championships. Running as a junior, she came 58th in 1997, 55th in 1998, and 43rd in 1999.〔(Kenza Dahmani ). IAAF. Retrieved on 2013-07-02.〕〔(Cross Junior Women - 23-03-97 ). IAAF.

That year she won the Algerian cross country title and was runner-up at the national half marathon championships.
