}Rethinking Yemen’s Economy
Tue, November 13th, 2018
Washington, DC
What can be done to prepare for the significant reconstruction challenges facing Yemen? How can humanitarian assistance efforts in Yemen be improved? How can the private sector be channeled to improve economic prospects and counter corruption? What role can outside donors play in this process? Carnegie will bring together Yemeni perspectives on the economic challenges facing their country.
The speakers are part of the “Rethinking Yemen’s Economy” project, a two-year of the Sana’a Center for Strategic Studies (SCSS), the Center for Applied Research in Partnership with the Orient (CARPO) and DeepRoot Consulting, which seeks to identify Yemen’s economic, humanitarian, social and development priorities and to prepare for the post-conflict recovery period.
