Update from Amman


One of the better ways to learn what's happening in Iraq is to talk to an Iraqi. In the attached audio link, Marianne Barisonek does just that. While on a recent trip to Jordan seeking ways to aid Iraqi refugees there, Marianne met Najlaa. This articulate, multi-lingual woman is herself an Iraqi refugee living in Amman. Najlaa is familliar with current events in Iraq and with the refugee situation in Jordan. In the attached interview done by phone, Najlaa Al-Nashi talks with Marianne and with Noah Merril Baker of Direct Aid Iraq The conversation discusses the state of affairs in both Iraq and for refugees in Jordan. Have a Listen.
