to the point of strong opinion, clear positions, international perspectives, police this week being on the highly anticipated meeting in geneva between 2 very powerful men who famously don't get on well. so was it worth the wait to find out, join me and my get on to the voice raised to the point. very dw. ah, now our populations across the world cove, in 1900 vaccines are struggling to reach some of the world's poorest countries. and communities are also, some of the most jazz, wary, countering deeply held believes as a tall odor, especially when historic inequality and health care itself is partly to blame. but

one campaign and berlin is paving away. how can skepticism in these groups be overcome? hello and welcome tara cove in 1900 special and chris kolber and berlin. here in german capital. all the vaccination campaign across the cities, refugee shelters was delayed large parts because of supply issues, but also by the spread of misinformation, mainly on social media. with the help of an education campaign vaccination take up is now increasing the back to a little normality in this refugee shelter in berlin. suing classes resumed, today, the inhabitants are delighted for most of the pandemic, the home was very, very quiet. smoke i was caught on. okay. in touch with many people before corona and i used to go out to lunch, but now i cannot meet up due to depend damage. it is very difficult for me to get

a baby. i want the pen demik too. and so we can have contact with other people, again, thought about the contact issue as you know, some residents know that getting vaccinated helps protect others and my independent mach most wary of getting the job. that's why this group of doctor's social workers and interpreters visits refugee homes to convince the most reluctant to sign up for an appointment. and sheila lloyd, many people were very afraid they would become infer thrombosis. this was much discussed in the media which also steer the fear amongst the residents too much easier on the status was about to lose the spot in the one of the short due to the high risk of infection shelters, refugees where almost top priority in germany, the vaccination efforts,

but various delivery bottlenecks and approval issues have delayed the campaign. even though this is now sorted out, social worker says it takes a lot of convincing for people to take the job vision assessment. it is important that you make them feel with knowledge and so there's no wrong question. and i mean use interpreters reactions. you can ask questions in their native language, articulate themselves better from a few more east in the conversation. english way. by the end of the afternoon, the doctors have met with around 20 people. face to face contact is key to success . in some refugee shelters, readiness to get vaccinated has jumped up to 80 percent as a result of the information campaign. for more, let's bring in lena samantha, she is a senior researcher on poverty and inequality at human rights watch. welcome to the w, alina in our report, we just learned about the reservation people in refugee camps half towards getting

vaccinated. the see a similar pattern with people living and other precarious conditions. thank you so much for having me. i absolutely do. so what we see is that the, the high end quality, especially economic and quantity that existed before the pandemic, as really translated into concerned in terms of access to, to vaccines. and also the interactions with governments. and many of the populations had been left behind by government for so many years and decades. so in, so it is really not unique to refugee population. in fact, in the united states, we see that black and brown people often who had disproportionately higher infection rates initially, or they had more hesitancy, tawbard to vaccine and out of the fear of cost. so what, what are some of the quite implications but also due to

a long standing neglect of to government and mistrust and the government? not the vaccination guys, nevertheless, are part of the reason why the economy, at least in many countries in the west, is picking up again. but you say that low income households are at a particular disadvantage in that recovery. why is that? it certainly depends on the, on the country context. i would say interesting even to take a step back, i think what we see is dad to global any quality meaning and equality between countries. here is a huge risk that low income countries will be falling further behind. as we see there's an equality in access to the scene with a higher income countries. having hoarded much of them and, and now having disproportion access to them. but at the country level, they have already been signs of, of the lack of transparency and access to the scene. corruption that often favors

certain groups in getting access earlier. and here low income people have been a disadvantage. another reason why is that in low income communities and neighborhoods health care is often lacking and is not available to the same extent . so people have to travel far distances to reach a health care center and get access to the vaccine. if we look at the economic impact of this, pandemic me on millions have lost their job during this time of crisis around the world, particularly in the service sector, and in low paying jobs. now, with economies reopening, won't these jobs? won't these opportunities for people come back? not necessarily him. and what is very concerning is that we saw that especially low income jobs has been lost at a much higher rate than by paying jobs. and one of the concerns is as countries

open back up, those won't come back to the same extend. you've seen that in previous crises and recession after the 2008 crisis. for example. besides, many of the low paying jobs have not come back and many people who but pushed into a poverty or unemployment did not necessarily work, can re hired one to country recovered. and so one piece that are really pushing for is for countries in a recovery phase to kind of consider the, the employment effects and a long standing effect, especially on low income people. now, speaking of recovering to varying degrees, governments have been trying to support people that have been particularly hit by the ben demik. are you worried that this sort of support could be a one time effect? very much so it's, it's been an extraordinary year and we've seen countries respond to the crisis in bays. they never have before. so the amount of money that have been poured into

relief programs into similar packages has been quite impressive by the human rights much we've done analysis and about 2 dozen countries. and what about their relief programs? and what we've seen is that many measured were highly temporary in terms of cash payments that we receive populations at one time. but aside from that, the also concerned as countries have taken on more and more debt to fine and fees, recovery and relief programs. that as countries have to serve as these that they were introduced harsh saturday programs that are harmful to human rights. they may rely, increasing the on the private sector to deliver essentially public services such as his care and education. and they may conduct further cut to social protection programs that are so essential, protecting people from poverty and equality, leave us a message seen, or research,

or a human rights watch. thank you for your thoughts. thank you. and up next is our science correspondent derek williams, answering your questions about the pandemic. oh, who does cubic 191215 minute. there are 2 facets of this, this multifaceted question that i'd like to talk about. the 1st is of course, the straightforward issue of what the virus does physically to an average young adult as compared to someone who's older and they are the statistics tell a pretty clear story. coded in 1900 mortality increases dramatically with age. let's look at recent data from the us. more than 4 and 5 deaths there have occurred in those over 65 and fewer than one into 100 reported

deaths have been in people under 30. but as vaccinations rise among the elderly in countries like the u. s. doctors say that the average age of patients who are being hospitalized with the disease is dropping dramatically and that many of those younger patients will end up with conditions like crippling damage to the lungs or the heart. so although cove at 19 is a lot less likely to kill a young adult, there are still really pressing reasons to get vaccinated because getting it can have devastating long term health consequences. the 2nd important facet of this question is, is the pandemic, emotional, social, psychological, and economic impact. it's affecting everyone of every age, but is experts say in many ways hitting young adults especially hard and,

and that a key time in their lives. there are no warning that due to lock downs and other measures generation cove, it is facing shortfalls in opportunities for, for crucial self development. many young people are rising to the challenges, but, but psychologists and other therapist in many places like like here in germany are also currently being overwhelmed by this tidal wave of young adults in need of help. and. and a lot of those professionals now say that even the serious toll taken by infection in today's young adults could in the long run, be overshadowed by the impact coven 19 has on the group's mental health me. and before we go, taiwan has produced its 1st home grown covered 900. maxine magine,

vaccine biologics has applied to the taiwanese government for emergency authorization of the jap. taiwan is currently facing a surge of domestic infections made worse by shortage of vaccines. less than 5 percent of the population have so far been inaugurate. that's our show for more you can always in our website at w dot com slash cobra. because cobra berlin, thanks for watching the news people in trucks injured, was trying to see the city center more and more refugees are being turned away. family planes, period, to be honest. and the trade people are

getting 200 people around the world. more than 300000000 people are seeking refuge. why? because no one should have to flee the make up your own mind. w. need for mines. then gammon with you at any time. and he played a video and have like to sing along to come from super interactive exercises. everything is online, mobile interactive gym. and when

i arrived here, i slept with people in a room as a nice to me, it was hard. i even got white hair learning the german language hit me a lot this case to me and critical question to instruct you want to know their story, migrants verifying reliable information for migrant. the the drama and gowns and a film festival for the public. but that's not all the berlin that has never shown laid away from the big issues that affect our world. films with hard hitting political content have always been main protagonists on the thread carpet. magnets

is welcome to arts and culture. it's always been known as europe's most political film festival. hollywood stars. welcome. but it burnings international film festival. they've never been the main attraction. over the years . we've got used to welcoming filmmakers who are also dissidence, or his work has been banned in the own countries. this year's edition again spotlights real life injustices, and in particular, tells the stories of confident, influential women whose courageous actions will go down in history. you rented it any longer for you, push back away from the table, getting there as quick as we can. the 100 obey detention camp in cuba. my men, the hollander, this is fine. i associate wish to represent you. last year from martinez is arrested on suspicion of having helped organize the $911.00 terrorist attacks. he's held up one time without being charged, and he confesses a lawyer,

discoveries. his confession was pained under arrest. the film is based on a true story. jodie foster plays the real life lawyer. nancy holder has been interrogated. he has been held against his will for 6 years without a single charge against nancy hollander came to berlin for the films premier. i'm really thankful that this film is premier in here because it's the most appropriate film festival that we could have imagined. and i want an audience to know what happened to my home to do, and to bring alive the torture and the terrors of going to animal so that people don't forget me, call this number to my bribe. and more we know not to trust. never did i believe the united states of america. what do you fear and care to control? no matter how dramatic this is. the reality was more dramatic than this. because

this is beyond anything you could imagine. you need to tell me what, how well, how to deal with detained us prison for 14 years without ever being charged with a crime. he kept diaries documenting his time in prison. the film is based on those diaries, that's a fly. he would you please raise your right hand and repeat after me. i also want the german audience to know that mohammed who has a child born in germany and his wife lives here, kitty and he should be able to travel here. another film, screening at the bally not as i one is also both violence and the long shadow cast by the parent was the the you win by the testing for the 1st time against male

power. the protest was sparked by the mass rapes on to here square during the spring demonstrations in 2011. the women held up nice symbols of the violence used against them. this is the only thing that change in the mentality of a woman. the way how they start to realize just ruin and their rights and the are not here anymore. they're not ashamed to talk about that anymore . and this is what the reason to be afraid of saying now we don't. and i think this is, i hope it will lead us for a change. so my hair, a quality connect to the sexual assaults during the rebellion with her own story and the memories of her pregnancy in me as a child, she was also taught the girls were worthless. i never ending chain of disempowering . it printed only to me.

i left the scene in what had been in a hurry to square its just open up every thing. same single thing that happened to me 20 years ago is all name was my god. oh no, i know i'm to meet while they've been there tomorrow. can i make the arab spring men different things to men? women, but egypt and women are now rising up and driving far reaching changes in their country. a powerful

stuff. and someone who has seen both those films is scott rock spar. welcome scott . now the more tiny and present a totally different take on the 911 narrative that we see where the movie and characters are with the bodies. it's been nominated for a host of woods. jodie foster, one a golden globe. what did you make of it? yeah, you're completely right, i mean, this film, the villains are the u. s. government and the, the victim is this muslim man wanted fella. he who was falsely imprisoned in in guantanamo bay, but the story of a prickly nancy hollander is struggle. her fight to get him released from guantanamo bays is really sort of a hollywood heroic struggle. and so it's great to see it getting the sort of proper hollywood treatment. and it's a phenomenal movie. great. a former president brock obama famously promised to close guantanamo bay over a decade ago. it still open with dozens of inmates, some of whom have never been charged. now do you think this phil might be the one

to really make a difference to those people? or will it might, i mean, i think guantanamo bay is sort of fallen off the agenda for many people worldwide. we haven't seen a news recently. and when i spoke to nancy hollander on the red carpet of the premier of this film here in berlin, she said she hopes the movie draws attention back to the fact that guantanamo bay is still open and maybe puts pressure on the u. s. government to come through on its promises to finally close that person. okay. now let's talk about as i want, we got a taste or in the pool setting cairo during the our spring. the director has called it an examination into the agenda. inequality arab societies suffers form. yeah, this is a really interesting documentary because it looks at the air sprinkling completely different angle than most of the used to seeing. and i'm eating a lot of us. remember the news reports from the time. but the fact that there was such a large group of female activists protesting mailed violence with something that i think got lost in this film. really put these female activists back in the center

and shows how much, how vital they are to any process of democracy in the middle east. it's really fast a documentary. ok, i will look forward to that. now a nice deal, one the, the see, it's not a documentary award for new set in the suburbs of paris where she herself grew up. tell us a bit about this interesting because it's a similar time to documented to take a look at something that we think we know and gives a whole different angle for it. so this, this takes place in the suburbs of paris. this are the phone you which in the news media are often portrayed as sort of hot spots for violence extremism. but the up grew up in these areas and the way she looks at is completely different. she takes of really the humanistic, empathetic look at the people who live there and also finds real beauty in areas that are superficially seen quite dire. it's a fastening very personal documentary, and i think after you've seen it, you'll never look at paris the same way again, really. ok. got rocks for as always, quite chatting with you now it dates back to ancient egypt

where it was set to be a favorite of queen cleopatra in india, the middle east in africa. it's been used for thousands of years for cultural reasons. and with cooling properties, i'm talking about decorating the skin using hannah is long been popular in the u. k . south asian communities. but one hand, an artist in london, is on a mission to bring hannah to a wider audience. with a modern where the art of painting bodies with hannah paced, goes back to antiquity. today it's become a veritable fashion trends. paula and dom job runs london had a bar where anyone can get their body painted henna tattoos are created using a paste made from a certain plant typical ahead of patterns and designs are painted onto the skin with this dye, which stains the skin and slowly fades after about 10 days. so

design means a lot for me because growing up we used designs, especially on weddings for us. it holds true significance for a spacious occasion. for me, while i was growing up, i thought it wouldn't be amazing to share this with everyone and not just have it for my aim has always been to make it accessible for everybody, but not everyone welcome some say westerners wearing henna tattoos are engaging in cultural appropriation, knowing little to nothing about the roof of this art for me, i feel like if someone's wearing our hannah and they're wearing it with sincerity and they really enjoying wearing it, then there's absolutely nothing wrong. i feel like if someone was going to wear it just to ridicule it, they wouldn't go through the hassle when on the skin for 10 days. so they obviously appreciate it that obviously love it and that makes me feel good. henna tattoos is originated in north africa, the arid and indo asian world news and centuries ago used to be used to cool down

the skin. so they used to crush up the leaves, make it seem to the pace with water and put it on the hands on the palms of the feet and these to cool you down. but over the years, it became decorative, when it became decorative for wedding, just because it's color. so a form of make up pop stars like liana, and us icon madonna helped popularized an attack too. since the 1990. many celebrities have hired pub and don john to get similarly unique tattoos done. the 36 year old who's bar is based in london, selfridge is department store is revolutionizing this art form. she experiments with new colors and offers do it yourself. hannah sets for home use and even makes me on hand design even though this fancy effect wears off after 24 hours. so i think the tradition,

what was be that always we are considered a modern brand, but my roots lie with the tradition. that's where it came from, and we will ways all of that, whether traditional or more modern hannah designs this glorious art, is definitely an expression of cultural diversity. such intricate patterns. it must have a really steady hand to do that. well, we've come to the end again, but you can find more stories on our website. that's d, w dot com slash culture. and we'll give the last word to diana ross. the u. s. senior and former supreme has a new single out. is the title track from her 1st studio album in 15 years recorded in her home. and it simply called find you enjoy
