Best international reporting in the broadcast media showing a concern for the human condition
An eye-opening documentary about the plight of Afghan refugee children living in Pakistan, “Terrors Children” was made by a young Pakistani journalist who decided to explore a problem right in her own backyard. Her months of reporting in refugee camps, garbage dumps, and local madrassas — places most Western journalists either can’t go or don’t go to—yielded vivid footage and gripping interviews with children caught up in desperate conditions. Obaid’s compassion for her subjects made this a unanimous choice.
