Yemeni journalism network website and investigation
Funded: YAMAN
The Yemeni Network for Investigative Journalism (YAMAN) is made up of a group of Yemeni journalists working to improve Yemeni investigative journalism, dedicated to monitoring and accountability.

Through NAWA-IF funding, the YAMAN team worked on an investigation that sought to investigate the legal parameters governing Sanaa airport’s current operations. The investigation has taken a human-interest angle, citing the experiences of those who were forced to travel long distances to Aden and Seiyun. YAMAN has worked through open-source investigative techniques, such as tracking flight data to prove the operationalization of Sanaa airport. The investigation is also providing the opportunity for YAMAN to launch its website and have a stronger digital presence on the internet. The publication of this investigation is forthcoming; to date a video has been created and published by Al Jazeera regarding this work.
