In Safa's words: 'Witnessing all that has happened in Lebanon and not being able to be there physically, I created an online survey for Lebanese citizens, expats, diaspora and anyone else who cares about Lebanon to share their input on how we might imagine our perfect Lebanon.' The survey is conducted through the website - http://wedreamforlebanon.org/ The answers are sent to her email and then shared on the website and on the Instagram page (@wedreamforlebanon) To support this podcast: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=22262458 For podcast transcripts: https://realarabic.weebly.com/podcast-transcript In this episode, we introduce you to the civil war in Yemen, its causes and its impacts.
