It Can Be Done - human rights law in action Series #1

In this series we worked with the Migrant's Law Project to tell the story of young refugees trapped in informal camps in Calais. Over several episodes we reveal how lawyers, activists, doctors and others worked to open legal routes to reunite the children with their families in the UK.
