The Yemen War: A Forgotten Conflict

For nearly a decade, one devastating conflict has quietly slipped into the shadows: the ongoing war in Yemen. According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), this war has caused no more than a quarter of a million deaths, and has led the country into what the UN describes as the “world’s worst human crisis”. There is an urgent need to highteen awareness on this war especially in the media landscape in order to be more aware of the catastrophic consequences this war has on the Yemenite population.

“Two intellectuals, sitting on their duffs won’t get as far as a brute who walks — Michel Audiard. Before you get offended, let’s be clear: it’s not just you — it's all of us. We all have those moments where we do something so mind-numbingly dumb that we can’t believe that we are functioning adults.

The Privilege of Being Heard

By blaming someone for our weight we just reduce the number of people that may help us carry it. Some politicians try to make us point fingers, but there lies a lonely ocean of suspicion between a pointed finger and a helping hand, and in that ocean the only wind filing up our sails are loud words trying to convince that we are moving, even though we remain stuck.
