We are a platform to discuss and to engage. We want the diaspora community to connect with the home community to take advantage of Yemeni diversity to rebuild, reconcile and reconstruct. We realise that taboos need to be broken and safe, judgement free spaces need to be structured. For those who are observing Yemen, this is a source for information and a source to understand the discussions and debates happening in Yemeni society. Rather than just looking at the numbers international organisations present, or arguments journalists make, Yemen Growth Forum gives you a chance to listen in on the many debates, many reasons for discontent, but also many reasons to have hope in what was once called “the happy Arabia.”
