Yemen Watcher is a Yemeni non-governmental organization that advocates for and implements cultural topics and projects related to issues of sustainable development. We believe that culture is a reliable means of addressing Yemen's pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges. We also believe in the importance of the role that the media and think tanks can play in achieving sustainable development through advocacy and objectively and credibly spreading awareness.

​

We strive to provide insightful insights, smart analyses, and topics and news that are rich, fact-based, and solution-oriented. To build a more equitable, prosperous, just, and inclusive society, our coverage focuses on interconnected issues such as poverty, hunger, climate change, inequality, education, and health. We also encourage international cooperation and synergy to share knowledge, resources, and best practices, and we strongly support the collaborative efforts of governments, businesses, civil society, and individuals to achieve a better future for all.

​

We pay special attention to local culture because it can play an important role in development. We believe that local culture is inextricably linked to sustainable development because it promotes knowledge enrichment, community participation, sustainable livelihoods, environmental stewardship, and social justice. Sustainable development efforts can achieve greater long-term relevance, effectiveness, and impact, including social cohesion, stability, and peace, by leveraging and respecting local cultures.

​

Yemen Watcher was founded in 2022, was officially registered as a non-governmental organization in 2023, and aspires to be a reliable and informed source for Yemen's various cultural and development affairs.
