The MSF Speaking Out podcasts are a series adapted from the original Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF) Speaking Out Case Studies (SOCS). Like the case studies, the podcast series examines the challenges and dilemmas surrounding speaking out. The series offers an in-depth look into these humanitarian dilemmas through the narration of extracts from MSF documents and press archives to help establish the facts. Interviews with the main MSF protagonists at the time of the events also provide insight into, and analysis of, the positions adopted, including personal reflections which offer fresh perspectives.

Episode 7: The ‘Forced Flight’ report
In May 1997, MSF published a new study describing the movements of refugees in the Great Lakes region of Africa and the fate of refugees. MSF planned to distribute the report to a small group of journalists, asking them not to cite MSF as the source of the information. However, a lack of communication between MSF offices and with the teams in the field, exacerbates tensions.
This podcast series is produced and mixed by Andrea Rangecroft.
Editorial direction is from Nancy Barrett, Laurence Binet, Martin Saulnier, and Rebecca Golden Timsar.
The narrator is Nick Owen.
The extracts are read by Danielle Stagg and Matthew Wade.
Music is by Lost Harmonies and Peter Sendberg
