This online version of the Exchange is organized by the Sana’a Center and The Exchange Foundation.
The Sixth Yemen Exchange launched its two-week online program on August 3, 2020, bringing together over 50 participants from around the world who aim to gain unique access to information, perspectives, updates and analysis on Yemen.
The opening session hosted Sana’a Center Executive Director Majed al-Madhaji and Senior Researcher Abdulghani al-Iryani who gave a deep dive into the political alliances, divisions and conflicts within Yemen.
The Exchange sessions, which will run between August 3 and August 14, total more than 25 hours and will present over 30 different Yemeni analysts, academics, politicians, bureaucrats, business leaders and international experts who will provide insight and a rare first-hand knowledge about the country from a wide range of perspectives.
Participants will also have the chance to virtually engage with speakers both during the sessions and connect with speakers they wish to engage individually after the Exchange.
