Just as the finish line was in sight for Expo 2020’s launch, reports of the Covid-19 virus began to dominate the news. The World Expo was postponed until 2021, but the question still remained: how does the World Expo safely bring the world together post-Covid? Her Excellency Reem Al Hashimy, the UAE’s Minister of State for International Cooperation and Director General of Expo 2020 Dubai, takes us behind the scenes as she reflects on the team’s journey.

This podcast is by Expo 2020 Dubai and produced by Kerning Cultures Network.
