2025 was a great year - working on my cultural heritage #Yemen documentary. Thank you to @MedillSchool @NorthwesternU @BuffettInst @pulitzercenter for the continued support!
Congrats to @Brent_Huffman who was awarded with a @BuffettInst Faculty Fellowship to pursue his research. His documentary, “Yemen Mosaic,” is about Yemeni women working to save the cultural heritage of Yemen as they face threats including war and climate change.
