Summer Throwback: HE Zaki Nusseibeh on the importance of storytelling in building identities

The Lighthouse Conversations with Hashem Montasser

In this throwback episode to our live episode at The Lighthouse: HE Minister of State Zaki Nusseibeh shares personal anecdotes from his childhood in Jerusalem, the early days of the UAE when he worked as a translator for HH Sheikh Zayed and the development of its arts and culture scene. While sharing snapshots from his various life experiences with the arts, Zaki weaves a thread between his passion for the arts, storytelling and their impact on not just our imagination but also our identity. We’d love to hear what you think of the live episode.

We’ll be back with new episodes in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, you can connect with us on on Instagram and find all of our episodes on our website.
