Join us for a compelling and timely conversation with Wael Al-Dahdouh, the veteran, award-winning journalist and Gaza bureau chief for Al Jazeera. For months, his reporting has served as a critical window to the world, offering unflinching coverage from the heart of the conflict. He has not only reported on the devastation but has also endured immense personal loss, becoming a global symbol of journalistic resilience and the human cost of war.
In this public address, Mr. Al-Dahdouh will share his first-hand account, offering a unique perspective on:
- The realities of living and reporting under constant bombardment.
- The personal and professional price of bearing witness to atrocities.
- The human stories of survival, loss, and steadfastness behind the headlines.
- The vital role of journalism in documenting conflict and holding power to account.
This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from a journalist on the front lines of history. The lecture will be followed by a Q&A session, providing the audience with a chance to engage with Mr. Al-Dahdouh.
