This is the fourth of four D4B podcasts that make up the D4B Debates that will help you unpack the coup in Burma.

In this episode, the panel host Shane Brady engages four distinguished panellists in a discussion on the topic of the unfolding humanitarian crisis in Burma. What can other countries do to help, what are ethnic minority groups doing and more importantly, what is the National Unity Government doing to prepare to respond?

The podcast format:

• The discussion begins with a brief introduction of each of the panel members.
• For each topic, panel members are asked to make a brief (5 mins) statement of their views.
• These statements are followed up with further questions from panel host Shane Brady.
