MyDohaDebates - Mohammad Abed

Wednesday, August 15 2012

My Doha Debates is a special series of summer interviews with a selection of regular Doha Debates audience members. We hear from teachers, students and the general public. Watch the videos to see how the debates have impacted their lives.

Mohammad Abed Shirzai is an Afghan graduate from Carnegie Mellon University. His Doha Debates story started when he was with the Academic Bridge Program's debating team back in 2008. The debates have given Mohammad a chance to become a part of the growing debating culture in the region. He believes that the debates have broken the barrier between the populace and politicians in the Arab world.
