In this week's episode, Rai Friedman is joined by Eric Reidy. Eric is the Migration & Special Coverage Editor for The New Humanitarian. He has reported extensively on migration in the Mediterranean as well as on humanitarian aid work and anti-migrant vigilante groups at the US-Mexico border and the effort to document crimes and atrocities in Syria’s civil war.

The two discussed European migration policies, the dangers of crossing the Mediterranean Sea en route to safety, the double standard for refugee humane reception, and the future of refugee policy worldwide.
