The Future of War: Documenting Human Rights Violations in Yemen

Radhya Almutawakel started human rights work in 2004; as she criticized the unfolding war in Yemen in a local newspaper, families of those who had been detained reached out to her for help. Now, Radhya is the co-founder and chairperson of the Mwatana Organization for Human Rights, which documents human rights violations by all parties of the conflict in Yemen. This week, Ravi and Grant talk to Radhya about the challenge of documenting famine as a tool of war, the future of the conflict in Yemen, and how to train a new generation of human rights advocates. Displaced is a production by the International Rescue Committee and Vox Media. You can read more about this episode in our show notes. Tell us what you think!
