Random Emirates Podcasts

I’m Beverly Sanders and welcome to my Arabic journey to The United Arab Emirates. An insight on living and working in one of the most amazing places in the world. The Emirates is a place where ancient meets modern. A gateway of economic and cultural identities. In two short generations the people of this area have gone from tribal nomadic people to educated and cosmopolitan, international and powerful and wealthy. In these podcasts I want to share with you my experience and knowledge of working and living in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. If you are thinking about going to the Emirates, maybe to work, maybe to live or just to take a holiday this is the Podcast for you. I will give you, not only practical advice but share with you some of things that have really happened to me in over twenty five years I have lived and worked in this incredible place.

Jon Alterman and Margo Balboni of the Middle East Program host. Produced by Emily Grunewald and Yumi Araki. For listeners who want a deeper dive into the UAE’s conscription program, the full “Citizens in Training” report with a two-page executive summary is available here.
