This live programme from Cardiff in Wales will look at the current Syrian refugee crisis and see how Lebanon and Wales have responded to this century’s largest humanitarian crisis. Jointly presented by Jason Mohammad from BBC Wales and Rami Ruhayem from BBC Arabic we hear from refugees in both Lebanon and Wales and explore what sort of welcome can be expected by those who come. In a live studio discussion the programme asks if we have a moral obligation to do more or the costs are simply too high.
