A report from Jordan on the Syrian child refugee crisis. Half of six million Syrian refugees – and of all refugees worldwide – are children. In spite of this, only 2% of all refugee funding goes to education. Sesame Workshop and the International Rescue Committee, a refugee non-profit founded by Albert Einstein, have partnered to develop a version of Sesame Street aimed directly at Syrian child refugees called “Ahlan Simsim.” The show focuses on emotions such as fear, loneliness, anger, and determination while teaching coping mechanisms. It will begin airing in February in 20 countries. Includes interviews with Laila Hussein, guide and I.R.C. Coordinator; David Miliband, head of the International Rescue Committee; Scott Cameron, “Ahlan Simsim” showrunner and Sesame Street producer; a family of Syrian refugees who live in a camp; and a family who live in a tent settlement outside the refugee camp.

The Palestinian " Right to Return" to the land from which they fled in 1948, when Israel was created, is now one of the main obstacles to peace in the Middle East. The Palestinian refusal to relinquish their dream of returning to the homes so many still hold keys to is based on both an internationally recognised moral standpoint and on UN resolutions. Travelling to the Palestinian refugee camps in Syria and Lebanon we see and feel their historic journey and hear why they refuse to give up their dream of returning to the land they call Palestine. It's a beautifully crafted film which adds resonance to the headlines dominating our news these days.

Can a State entrust other countries with the task of keeping asylum seekers away from its borders? Transformed into a fortress, Australia is blocking clandestine refugees in the over-crowded and unsanitary camps of Nauru and Manus. What Europe is currently trying to implement with Turkey, Australia has been practicing since 2012. Their radical policy sets out to intercept all clandestine immigrants before they reach the Australian coast. Once intercepted, immigrants are transferred to the island of Nauru and Manus, off the coast of Papua New Guinea. Today, nearly 1,500 people are being detained there - well out of sight of Australian public opinion – for having attempted to reach Australia by boat to seek refugee status. The information that filters through from the camps is indicative of a catastrophic situation, and features violence inflicted by wardens, suicide attempts and riots. In Australia, an increasing number of voices are speaking out against an inordinately expensive policy. The private company that manages the offshore transit camps costs over a billion dollars.

L’écrivain et chroniqueur Yann Moix s’est rendu à Calais, au cœur d’une situation inextricable mettant aux prises migrants, habitants et forces de l’ordre. Il y a, à Calais, des dunes, des sous-bois, des hangars, des impasses qui n’appartiennent plus à aucun pays. Dans ces zones où le droit n’existe pas, où la loi n’a aucun sens, la notion de frontière est interrogée.
