Ahmed is the host of Resettled, a podcast from VPM (Richmond, Virginia’s NPR and PBS station) that aims to uncover the refugee resettlement process through the stories of those directly experiencing it. 
Launching on July 3rd, 2020 this six-part podcast series showcases stories of refugees as they adjust to their new lives in Virginia. The season will consist of thematic episodes, each of which aims to bring the listener into the daily lives of refugees through field interviews (at home, work and school), personally-recorded audio diaries and reflective studio interviews.
