Refuge: 18 stories from the Syrian exodus

December 03, 2013 by Emily Chow
“A child broken. Homes destroyed. Millions of lives upended. Syria’s refugee crisis is altering the Middle East.”

Reporter Kevin Sullivan and Photographer Linda Davidson had an idea for a series of stories and held a brainstorm prior to their reporting trip to Syria. They returned with powerful photographs and an interest in exploring different ways to showcase the voices of Syrian refugees outside of our standard article template. Tim Wong mocked up this "story gallery" experience and I worked with our Wordpress developer Connor Jennings to build out the templates.
