Here is some footage of life in Ruweishid Camp, as promised,There are no interviews in this segment, just an assortment of clips attempting to provide some insight into the conditions refugees in Ruweishid have to deal with on a daily basis.Please let me know how you feel about this format, providing short segments of b-roll to give insight into the lives of those in the Middle East, particuarly refugees and others impacted by the invasion of Iraq.

This week Alive in Baghdad will take you to the Ruweishid Refugee Camp.Ruweishid was constructed in 2003, after a decree from King Hussein ordered that refugees stranded in the "No Man's Land" between Iraq and Jordan, be allowed safe harbor within Jordan proper.Unfortunately, the refugees soon found conditions in Jordan's Eastern Desert were not much more hospitable than the No Man's Land. Although they are safe from random killings and the violence of Iraq's war zone, not much else is better.Refugees there suffer from the heat in summer and cold in winter. Poisonous insects are rampant, while water and electricity are a scarce commodity.Many of the refugees you will hear in this video are teachers, they are struggling to provide their children an education. This is harder than even one might be able to imagine, they lack school books and even pencils and paper are scarce.Against everything they are surviving, and have been there now for three years. They aren't allowed to leave the camp, except for medical emergencies, and visitors may only come with permission from the Ministry of Interior or the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.I have not included much footage of the camp in this segment, wanting the faces of the refugees to speak to you themselves. I will be including another video post of much of the b-roll from Ruweishid.Next week we hope to bring the first segment of newly recorded footage from Baghdad, if this proves impossible, we will have another segment, likely focusing on a conference here in Amman last week, examining the possibilities for non-violence in Iraq.

In this 12 minute interview with a young man named Sadir, you will hear about the plight of Iranian Kurds. Sadir and his fellow Iranian Kurds have been living in the desert near Jordan's border with Iraq for 3 years. They have been awaiting resettlement in a third country since they fled Iraq in 2003. They are not allowed to leave the camp, and can only have vistors who receive official permission from the King, the Interior Ministry office, or the United Nations High Commission for Refugees.With the help of an NGO working to provide school supplies to the Ruweishid Refugee Camp, Alive in Baghdad was able to gain access to the camp and interview several of the refugees there.This is the first of several interviews you can expect, we will also be uploading a short edited piece about Ruweishid, hopefully by the coming weekend.
