S03E08: End of Year-Home Episode
Manage episode 392040784 series 3319479
From a perspective of global conflict and intense suffering, 2023 has certainly been a year to say farewell to. But for us at ReFOCUS, we also have to look back on all we’ve achieved, especially within the evolution of our Fractured podcast.
In this final episode of 2023, our core team discusses the topics that were most impactful as well as upcoming episodes and wishes for the coming year of production. From the one year anniversary of the #Women_Life_Freedom movement in Iran, to earthquake relief efforts in Herat, Afghanistan to Trans-rights in Africa and Greece to critical updates from Lesvos, Greece “Fractured” continued to bring important and under-reported stories and voices to the forefront of discussion. We’re deeply proud of the collective effort our community put forth to launch our podcast into new territory. As our director and lead editor Sude Fazlollah put it, “now we have a face” when celebrating our effort to film our bi-weekly episodes for YouTube and Spotify. After a brief holiday break we’ll be back with a new episode in mid-January, so until then Happy Holidays to all our listeners, viewers, guests, partners and supporters who make this programming possible.
