Voices Of The Middle East And North Africa

For the past thirty year, The Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA) has been working for the rights of children in the Middle East by sending humanitarian aid, supporting projects for children and educating North American and international communities about the effects of the US foreign policy on children in the region. This week, we speak The Middle East Children’s Alliance founder Barbara Lubin and MECA’s program manager for cross-cultural programs Ziad Abbas about the organization’s humanitarian work in Palestine. Also this week, we bring back a conversation we had with Palestinian visual artist Khaled Jarrar about his award-winning documentary film, “Infiltrators.”
