Today was a bit of deja vu as we retuned to the UNHCR compound to get our filming permits. We made the best of our wait by interviewing three people working in different but interconnected offices. First we spoke with Delphine Marie who essentially works as the spokesperson for the UNHCR mission in Chad. She discussed some of the current problems and signs of progress in the eastern camps. Next we spoke with Oscar Nkulu about the challenges of bringing education to refugees. Lastly, we met we Andrea, an outspoken Italian who’s tackling the massive task of making the Chadian refugee camps more sustainable and less degrading to the environment.
You can see a bit of our talk with Delphine and Oscar in the above Video.
