In the sixth episode we talk about winter. Munah, an Iraqi refugee who came to Jordan with her two sons a few years ago, talks to us about her experiences of trying to settle in a new country during winter, and the stresses it induced in her family. Following that, we talk to a team of mental health professionals from Médicine Sans Frontières about mental health challenges refugees suffer, which are exacerbated during the winter months.

For our last episode of the year, we sit down with Amanda Lane who is the executive director at Collateral Repair Project, and reflect on how far the organization has come since her arrival. We also talk about CRP's future plans, the new center, and what's in store for 2019.

In our Fourth episode of the Collateral Repair Podcast, we examine the daunting challenges refugees go through when looking for a job. Emad, a Syrian who crossed the border into Jordan in 2012, walks us through his job hunting experiences in Amman. After that, Anas Al Chalabi, who is an NGO consultant with UN, explains the differences between Syrian and Iraqi refugee employment issues.

This episode marks the launch of the Collateral Repair Podcast, a new platform from Collateral Repair Project to tell the stories of refugees living in Amman, Jordan. We begin our program with an episode on education, a critical and complex factor in refugee children’s lives after displacement. You will hear from Suleiman, an Iraqi teen who took a singularly unique education path, and Karam Hayef, CRP’s Education Specialist.
