Rebuilding from the Ruins

From Our Own Correspondent

Available for over a year

Insight and wit from correspondents around the world - introduced by Pascale Harter. In this edition: Yolande Knell analyses how and why the Muslim Brotherhood has lost diplomatic clout in the Middle East, with contributions from Egypt, Jordan and the Gaza Strip; Tomi Oladipo takes a frontline tour of the villages laid waste by Boko Haram, as the Nigerian army goes on a media charm offensive; Jon Donnison gets a helicopter's eye view of the damage done to Vanuatu by Cyclone Pam, and meets its survivors; Razia Iqbal is fascinated by the ancient city of Mohenjo Daro - but less than impressed by modern Pakistan's custodianship of the site; and Nick Davis explains why Jamaican hearts are softening towards the island's dog population ... even the strays.
