Dr Najla brings to light the harsh realities of working in one of the toughest settings – in the midst of the humanitarian crisis in Yemen. The questions and concerns she raises highlights the importance of global health and the compelling need for global solidarity. This episode is an emotional rollercoaster: on the one hand she paints a bleak picture of the dire state of children’s health in Yemen, with unacceptably high malnutrition rates and death from common treatable diseases like diarrhoea and measles, while on the other hand she embodies the tenacity and strength of the human spirit to withstand the most difficult conditions.
