Haitham Alaini believes that preparing people through education is one of the most practical and helpful ways of securing a better future.

structures.
Another gem, the 16th-century palace of Alabhar Quarter in Old Sana’a, a UNESCO World Heritage
Site, was restored using traditional techniques and period-appropriate materials, showing that it is
possible to keep the past alive while attending to the most unyielding needs of a people.
