Egypt Protests Five Years On

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

What did the protest movement in Egypt achieve? And what has changed? We speak to Egyptians with different ideas about the legacy of the so-called Arab Spring. We also speak to people currently involved in new protests in Tunisia and Morocco. Also, after the death of an Antarctic explorer on a solo journey, what is it like to be there? What are the challenges of such a dangerous place? (Photo: Cairo's Tahrir Square as it is today. The square was the focal point of the 2011 protests. Credit: Khaled Desouki/AFP/Getty Images)
