In this episode of the “Barada” podcast, we discuss the increasing incitement against civil society organizations in Yemen. These organizations are crucial for providing essential services and supporting the most vulnerable populations. Unfortunately, they have become targets of incitement and smear campaigns, which jeopardize their operations and staff safety. This situation also undermines efforts toward peacebuilding and development in the country.
Join us as we warmly welcome Yemeni civil society experts who will examine the roots of this issue, its far-reaching consequences, and the proactive measures being taken to protect this crucial sector. Civil society actors have proven integral to the humanitarian response and are a key pillar of democratic governance. Tune in and be inspired by their resilience!
