Communicating about Syria – A humanitarian perspective

For my second instalment from the Frontline Club I was charged with reporting from the panel discussion Communicating about Syria – A humanitarian perspective.

Lindsey Hilsum, Channel 4 News’ International Editor chaired a panel which included Hicham Hassan from the Red Cross; Lyse Doucet, BBC Chief International Correspondent; Ben Parker, head of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian affairs; and Fadi Haddad from the Mosaic Initiative for Syria.

Read the full report on the Frontline Blog here but first listen to what Lindsey, Lyse and Fadi had to say about their experiences in Syria when I spoke to them after the event.
