I’m not sure how the new policies towards USAID will affect using such data, hopefully data will be available to scholars in the future as well.

Beyond thrilled to receive funding for two years of post doc and to continue my research on civil governance during conflicts 🤩

It’s not too many of us researching civil wars or Syria in Finland so very grateful to be able to continue the work 🙏

Hyvä pointti! Ja myös muista sodista maailmalla voidaan oppia, esim. Israelin toimet Gazassa, Venäjä ei ole ainut toimija jota seurataan.

I first heard about Yemenis being recruited under false pretences in August.

Reporting from the FT shows this is systematic human trafficking. Yemeni recruit says they were forcibly taken from the airport, shots fired when they refused to sign enlistment contracts…all facilitated by the Houthis.

tapahtumahetkellä. Miten toimittajat eivät tuolloin löytäneet niitä? Nojattiinko taas liikaa isoihin mediataloihin ja toistettiin samoja virheitä mitä ne olivat tehneet? Vai toistettiinko tarinaa antisemitistisistä hyökkäyksistä koska Israel?

Rahaf Aldoughli’s recent article Fighting together isn’t directly about secular-Islamist binary but takes a different look to the SNA where fighters also show some similarities to the more sec/nationalistic revolutionary opposition.

It was a pleasure to talk to high school students about Syria and the US foreign policy in the region - great questions by students!
