OUR STORY

How it started

Yemen 21 Forum is a Yemeni civil society development and humanitarian organization established in 2006 with headquarters in Sana'a and moved in 2021 to Aden because of the conflict. It was first created in 1998 by the Founder of Yemen Times establishment Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Sakkaf as Yemen’s first Think Tank and a deliberate effort to serve as a catalyst in mobilizing local input in support of the democratic process of Yemen. Due to the demise of its founder, the NGO’s work was stopped until it was re-commenced with a new more expanded mandate by his daughter Nadia Al-Sakkaf, the current director of the forum.

While Y21F continues to operate from Yemen in Aden, it is now operating under 21 Century Forum, a non profit enterprise registered in the UK company number: 14039282.
