UTTN is an independent podcast created and hosted by Palestinian activists Amira Mohammed (‘67) and Ibrahim Abu Ahmad (‘48). For decades, narratives on Palestine and Israel have been deeply polarized, fueling division and sustaining inequalities that block justice and peace. A Third Narrative is essential to break this cycle. It fosters an inclusive community for those seeking real solutions and committed to nonviolence. It envisions a future that doesn’t just mediate between sides but transforms the conversation—paving the way for meaningful change.With Amira and Ibrahim Sozialwissenschaften

    Necessity Fuels Innovation
    May 17 2026

    In this episode of UTTN: The Podcast, we speak with Nisreen, founder and CEO of Makers Tech for Good — a Palestinian initiative reimagining what innovation can look like when it is driven by community, necessity, and care.

    Based in Ramallah, Makers brings together engineers, therapists, designers, volunteers, and families to develop practical solutions for people often overlooked by traditional systems. In a reality marked by occupation, limited resources, and constant uncertainty, the work becomes about more than technology — it becomes about dignity, access, and the belief that people should be able to shape solutions for their own communities.

    Together, we explore the realities of building under constraint, investing in local talent, and creating impact that begins at home while resonating far beyond Palestine.

    Tune into this inspiring conversation about imagination, resilience, and the quiet power of people who continue to create despite the circumstances around them.

  • ALBI, there for you

    ALBI, there for you
    Mar 29 2026
    In this episode, we sit with Libby Lenkinski, Founder and President of Albi, a fund, institute, and lab built on one belief: that art is not an accessory to change, it is the spark.After years in movement spaces, Libby turned toward culture as the ground where possibility is first imagined. What she is building with Albi is not just support for artists, but an infrastructure for imagination. A commitment to the idea that creativity can open what politics alone cannot.Some stories don't just move you. They change you. Through its ⁠Film and Television Fund⁠, its ⁠Palestinian Creatives Pipeline⁠ in collaboration with Jalal Masarwa and Rosalin Agbaria, and its ⁠Fáros Fellows program⁠, Albi pours itself into the stories that humanize, that ache, and that stay with you long after the screen goes dark. This is what Libby describes as "Creative Defiance." A refusal to accept a world where empathy is scarce and imagination is limited. A belief that art can reach where argument fails, and move people before they know they are ready to be moved.Show notes:At the time of recording this episode, 4 Albi-supported films were shortlisted at the Oscars: Holding Liat, The Voice of Hind Rajab, Coexistence, My Ass!, and Children No More: Were and Are Gone. Two of them were eventually nominated for Academy Awards: Children No More: Were and Are Gone for Best Documentary Short Film and The Voice of Hind Rajab for Best International Feature Film. In addition, here is the open letter by Avigail Sperber mentioned in the episode in relation to the cultural boycott of Israeli  films, or any kind of association with Israeli films.Films / Shows Mentioned in the EpisodeArab Labor Our BoysFive Broken CamerasWaltz with BashirUnorthodoxUnder African SkiesArna's ChildrenDisclaimer: This episode was recorded on January 6, 2026.

  • Clean Shelter

    Clean Shelter
    Mar 1 2026
    What began as a conversation did not stay there. It turned into persistence. Into urgency. Into late-night phone calls and constant coordination. Into people refusing to sit still.At the center of it was a question: What do the people of Gaza need right now, and how do we get it to them?Clean Shelter was born from that question, and from two women who refused to be bystanders.In this episode, we are joined remotely for the first time this season by Seba AbuDaqa and Tom Kellner, founders of the German NGO now working alongside teams on the ground in Gaza. But this work does not begin abroad. It begins inside Gaza itself. The volunteers there know what their communities need. They know the terrain, the shortages, and the risks. They know how to build, repair, and distribute under impossible conditions.Seba and Tom walk us through the logistics and daily problem-solving behind what they call “the bare minimum”: sanitary needs and shelter solutions for tens of thousands of Gazans. What sounds simple on paper requires resourcefulness, trust, and people on the ground who are willing to act.While the world debates the future of Gaza, Clean Shelter is urgently tending to its present, one tent, one desalination unit, and one toilet at a time.This is a conversation about refusing to let dialogue end at words, and about what happens when people carry it forward into action.Donate to Clean Shelter here, and be sure to check out HUMAN EYES - a powerful project with proceeds going directly to them.Disclaimer: This episode was recorded on December 1, 2025.
