  • Resumen

  • "Lebanon: Should I stay or should I go?" is produced by Sowt for Context, the Thomson Reuters Foundation’s digital news platform. In this series, the people of Lebanon share their stories of living through one of the most turbulent periods of their nation’s history. They tell us how they navigate through their lives in a country plagued by chronic corruption, deep sectarian divisions and a crippling economic crisis. And they wonder whether it makes more sense for them to keep living in Lebanon, or risk everything to seek better lives elsewhere.

    In this episode, we take listeners to Tripoli, Lebanon's second city and one of the poorest urban areas on the Mediterranean coast. We visit the slums of Hayy al Tanak in Tripoli and then head to Hermel, a poor district where crime is rife and tribal vendettas are common. People here let us into their lives and share what it is like to be cast aside and forgotten by the very people who are supposed to be taking care of them – their government. And Farah Al Shami, a development economist and fellow at the Arab Reform Initiative, tells us how the economic meltdown has affected the most vulnerable. "Lebanon: should I stay or should I go?" is produced by Sowt for Context, the Thomson Reuters Foundation’s digital news platform, and it is the story of a nation's collapse as told by its own people. This episode was produced by Layla Yammine and Basant Samhout, hosted by Nazih Osseiran. Sound Design by Siham Arous. Editorial support by Rana Daoud. The show's Executive Producer is Nada Issa. Original score is composed by Firas Abou Fakher. https://www.context.news/

    For years, Lebanon was seen as a safe haven for LGBTQ+ people from the region, but that is changing. Religious leaders and conservative politicians are fanning the flames of intolerance, and queer people say they are being scapegoated and blamed for the country's economic and social failings. In episode 1 of "Lebanon: should I stay or should I go?" we hear from Adam, Joe and Karim who tell us how they are coping with this increasingly hostile environment in their homeland. We also speak to activist Maya Al Ammar about the current state of LGBTQ+ rights in the country.

    We started producing this podcast in August 2023. Then came the seismic events that have shaken the Middle East since October 7th, and we thought we would hold back our launch until things calmed down a bit. Obviously, things haven’t calmed down. But we’ve released our podcast because the people we met and interviewed are still there, and their stories are still important. We think, however, that we owe you an explanation of our decision, and set the stage for the episodes that you are about to listen to. So, in episode zero, Executive Producer Nada Issa and producers Layla Yammine, and Jawad Rizkallah share their own stories of what life in Lebanon has been like since the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas militants on Israel and the subsequent Israeli offensive in Gaza. And what that has meant for them as journalists, as Lebanese citizens and as producers of a podcast that aims to bring you stories of some of their country’s most marginalised people.
