Anne Curry finds out what drives Funmi, a UNHCR humanitarian

Description

Why do some choose to become humanitarians in the face of war? During her visit to South Sudan, Ann Curry spoke with UNHCR’s Funmi Osibona, who is on the frontlines of the largest displacement crisis in the world. Funmi is one of an estimated half a million frontline humanitarians worldwide—more than 40% of whom are women—working tirelessly to support those forced to flee their homes. This International Women’s Day, we celebrate the commitment of women who make a difference when it matters most. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Information for media: If you would like to use this video to communicate refugee stories or require B-Roll, transcripts, stills or much more information, please visit our media page: https://media.unhcr.org UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee Agency, works to protect and assist those fleeing war and persecution.
