Stories of survival and resilience from Puntland on the Somali coast; the tribal villages rebuilt by in central India; the site of the Bangkok bombing; and remote Tristan da Cunha
Stories of survival and resilience from around the world, introduced by Pascale Harter. Andrew Harding revisits the Puntland region, on the Somali coast: it was once considered lawless and a stronghold for pirates, but now hopes to rejoin the rest of Somalia and is jailing both accused pirates and Al-Shabaab militants, even as it shelters refugees from fighting in other parts of the country and in Yemen. Alpa Shah is in Telengana and Chattisgarh states in central India, seeing how tribal people fleeing the long-running Maoist insurgency and oppressive state forces have rebuilt their villages and their lives in new pastures. Steve Evans, on the scene of the shrine bombing in Bangkok, reflects on what motivates people to take photos at the sites of disaster and violence. And Chris Carnegy is stuck on the remote island of Tristan da Cunha, as he gives up his berth on the next boat out for the benefit of a gravely-ill local man.
