Due to #COVID19, thirteen-year-old Keya is staying home in New Dehli, India, one of the most populous cities in the world. This is what her day looks like.

Young people are calling for peace through poetry. Now, amidst the #COVID19 pandemic, a global ceasefire is needed more than ever.

We're waiting to be safe. Waiting for hugs, high-fives and freedom to play. Waiting for something to stop #COVID19 and make it all possible. #VaccinesWork

This is one of the saddest stories I have covered. 18,000 people stuck in a Greek refugee camp- I was struck by how many small children were running around in filth- 7000 of them, 1000 travelling alone. ⁦@GabsODO⁩ ⁦@helenedaoupharsbbc.co.uk/news/av/world-euro…

‘I drive the bulldozer forward There are graves that must be done...’ A stunning entry in @WORDSBYOFFICIAL by @CamillaThurlow inspired by the story of a Syrian grave digger - our poetry anthology is the perfect Christmas gift. All proceeds to @UNICEF_uk amazon.co.uk/dp/1527246094/r…

NEW: London (unsurprisingly) was central to the OneCoin story. Dr Ruja Ignatova planned to move to London - she bought a Kensington penthouse, rented office space at 1, Knightsbridge & relied on London lawyers. Long read from me in the @TheSTMagazine. thetimes.co.uk/article/the-4…

The Cave - Hard but necessary film. You, me and international leaders should watch and listen. Conflict and patriarchy at work. Special also to hear from Dr Amani who centres the doc - we say heroic she’d say necessity. @CatrinNye @NextGenLondon great screening.
On Tuesday we are screening THE CAVE in collaboration with @TFIPFilms @NatGeo in Soho. We will have Dr Amani and producer Kirstine Barfod in conversation after the film. Thanks to everyone that’s coming - see you there! eventbrite.co.uk/e/syria-doc…
