EP 49 - Eshrat Nikrooye-Asli & Angela Chan, CBYX Corona Refugees

Mar 16, 2020

Eshrat and Angela join the podcast to discuss the immediate impacts of the spread of Corona Virus on everyday people that are oft overlooked in situations such as this. For them and many like them, their everyday lives are about to be completely different, that is if they can rebuild from nothing. 

The Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange program is a jointly funded program between the US State Department and the German Bundestag. The program has been curtailed by the spread of the Corona Virus and all of the participating students are being repatriated, many back to home countries where they have no homes or apartments, no jobs, no health insurance, and very little in the form of support from their governments.
