Most notably, Dr Ali Fadhil shot and produced an investigative documentary for Channel 4's Dispatches programme. Iraq's Missing Billions looks at the billions of dollars of Iraqi money spent by the Coalition Provisional Authority in the two years after invasion. The film uncovers widespread incompetence, waste and, in certain cases, abuse and fraud in the reconstruction of Iraq's infrastructure and in particular hospitals and health centres. In July Dr Ali was invited to testify to the US senate on the results of his investigations. Earlier this year, Dr Ali was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship and is now studying for an MA in Journalism at NYU. Iraq's Missing Billions was a finalist in the One World Broadcasting Trust Awards 2006.
