Egyptian musician Dina El Wedidi makes it onto Time’s list of next-gen leaders

We have a next-gen leader in our midst: Egyptian musician Dina El Wedidi has made it onto Time Magazine’s list of next generation leaders for her experimental compositions and socially-conscious lyrics.

Former Al Jazeera English Cairo bureau chief Mohamed Fahmy has been tapped as the CEO of London-based The Investigative Journal, an online publication that launched last year, according to Vancouver’s City News. Since its creation, the publication has “exposed evidence of cyber-espionage in Qatar, as well as collusion between ISIS and the Turkish government,” and currently employs several journalists who “have been either kidnapped, prosecuted or jailed while doing their job,” Fahmy says.
