Interview: Migrants Abandoned in Searing Sahara

Ariane Kirtley, Amman Imman(June 29, 2018) Ariane speaks with Meteorologist Kait Parker of the Weather Channel about the worldwide migration crisis.

In June, Algeria abandoned 13,000 migrants in the Sahara desert, forcing men, women and children to walk in blistering heat without food or water.  Many perished.

In this podcast, Ariane and Kait discuss Algeria’s current treatment of migrants, the various causes at the root of migration, and how to support populations at risk so that they may have recourse to other solutions rather than abandoning their homes.
