Fall 2013 Round-Up

In the past few months, War News Radio reporters have covered everything from the euphoria and disappointment of youth protestors all over the world this summer, to the nonviolent resistance movement in Syria, to travelers looking for peace in times of conflict. We feel lucky to have heard so many amazing stories – stories that challenged the way we think about conflict resolution and put a human face on far-away wars. As the year ends, we send warm wishes to the many people that shared those stories with us.
Here’s a look back at WNR’s work from Fall 2013.
