Lebanese

Youssef Farhat's story is one of resilience, determination, and a deep-rooted passion for human rights. A decade ago, he embarked on a new chapter of his life as an undergraduate student at the University of Dayton, Ohio. Little did he know that his experiences in this city, with its own share of challenges, would shape his path towards making a significant impact on a global scale.

Hailing from the Zgharta district in northern Lebanon, Farhat's connection to his home country's struggles has always been strong. However, his recent appointment as the executive director of New York University's Centre for Human Rights and Global Justice marks a pivotal moment in his career. The center's remarkable work spanning 35 countries, collaborating with renowned experts such as UN special rapporteur Margaret Satterthwaite and environmental legal scholar Cesar Rodriguez-Garavito, ignited Farhat's desire for change.

Farhat's decision to join NYU's Center for Human Rights and Global Justice is a testament to his commitment to advancing human rights and advocating for justice on a global scale. Inspired by the center's impactful initiatives, he is ready to channel his energy and expertise to tackle pressing issues affecting individuals and communities worldwide.

As he takes on this new role, Farhat brings with him a wealth of experiences and perspectives, combining his Lebanese heritage with the knowledge he gained during his time in the United States. With his leadership, the Centre for Human Rights and Global Justice is poised to embark on a transformative journey, leaving an indelible mark on the pursuit of justice and human rights.

The UAE's AI Ambitions Get a Boost with Nvidia Chip Approval: A Game-Changer for the Gulf Region.

-
The advance made by the United States in the approval of cutting-edge Nvidia chips to G42 is a historic development for UAE’s artificial intelligence ambitions. This strategy thus not only represents significant technological growth but also marks an important political milestone for UAE that wants to portray itself as a global hub for technology. In particular, accessing advanced AI technologies such as Nvidia’s H100 models has been significantly hindered over the years due to fears about UAE-China relations, with the US tightening its export restrictions in the area.
