Marking the 13th anniversary of the death of The Sunday Times journalist Marie Colvin, four members from the Marie Colvin Journalists’ Network (MCJN) reflected on her legacy and debated the hopes and challenges facing Syria under a new leadership.
In December 2024, the brutal Assad regime was suddenly toppled and Bashar Al-Assad fled the country. In this virtual panel discussion, Arwa Damon (formerly a CNN senior correspondent), Acil Tabbara (Lebanon and Syria Bureau Chief for Agence France Presse), Hwaida Saad (Beirut-based correspondent for The New York Times) and Lina Chawaf (CEO of Radio Rozana FM), reflected on this seismic change and its implications for journalists, women and wider society in Syria.
