Canan Bayram (born 11 February 1966) is a German lawyer and politician (Alliance 90/The Greens) who has served as a member of the German Parliament (Bundestag) since 2017. She was a member of the House of Representatives of Berlin from 2006 to 2017, when she was directly elected to the Berlin-Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg – Prenzlauer Berg East electoral district in the 2017 federal election. From 2017 until 2021, she was the only Alliance 90/Green member of parliament to hold a direct mandate rather than being elected from the party list. Bayram decided against running for office in the 2025 federal because she lost confidence in the party's self-image and positions.
