The Observer Effect

How do you stop an epidemic that's already killed the local doctors? How do you solve a problem like 80,000 refugees and no toilets? How do you pipe safe drinking water into a village with no roads and no electricity? In this podcast, Australian Red Cross aid workers talk about the challenges of providing aid – in the crises that make the news and the ones that don't. If you've ever donated to an aid agency or wanted to be an aid worker, this is the show for you.
