World Refugee Week: What do the latest numbers tell us? With Mathilda Mallinson and Helena Wadia

It’s World Refugee Week and the results are in: Media Storm hosts Mathilda and Helena crunch the latest numbers on global displacement, to see how Europe and the UK are ranking on the hospitality charts.

Spoiler: it’s not very well.

In this episode, we revisit the testimonies of refugees from when The Guilty Feminist first launched its investigative sister podcast. Their stories reveal the patterns of state hostility creating a pipeline of displacement throughout Europe.
