"Oxford University Professor Alexander Betts, author Maya Goodfellow and CEO of Oxfam & Disasters Emergency Committee Trustee Danny Sriskandarajah debate how the world should respond to the refugee crisis today, in a conversation chaired by CNN anchor Clarissa Ward. The London-based Syrian chef and restaurateur Imad Alarnab shares his story of building a new life in the UK, cooking traditional Syrian dishes for viewers as he explores the importance of food, and CNN’s Senior International Correspondent Arwa Damon discusses her ongoing work with refugee children in the Middle East. An dynamic and moving performance from solo artist Shingai closes the evening!"
