It's that time of the year again! As we welcome 2017, I would like to wish you a wonderful prosperous year. Full of love, faith, health and, as always, books -- lots of them :)

A TechWoman from the Middle East: Diana Nassar - Podcast

I am so excited about this podcast that I recorded a couple of weeks ago for #WomenInTechSeries -- a partnership between Women in Foreign Policy and The Foreign Policy Project that features women working at the intersection of technology and foreign policy.

I talk about TechWomen, what it is like to be a woman working in technology, and more! Listen to the podcast and read the full transcript here :) #TechWomen16

بودكاست / مقابلة صوتية أتحدث فيها عن "تيك وومن" وتجربتي كفتاة عاملة في قطاع التكنولوجيا، وموضوعات أخرى. هذه المقابلة هي جزء من سلسلة تعرض نساءً مهتمات بالتكنولوجيا والسياسة/العمل المجتمعي من حول العالم. :)
