TNA Voice: How vulnerable Arabs and Muslims are fighting more than one pandemic this Ramadan

Following on from last week’s episode focusing on how the Coronavirus is affecting the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, this week we will focus on the hardships that many across the Middle East and North Africa are facing during this month, especially vulnerable groups.

We will focus on how the region’s financial downturn coupled with the demands of Ramadan could fuel social unrest, and the effect on mental health and general well being. 

Next we will discuss why the outbreak of Covid-19 in war-torn Yemen is being ignored by many, even though an outbreak in the country could result in an unprecedented death toll.

Finally, we will find out why lockdown measures are producing life-threatening circumstances for women in the region.
