The fourth episode in feMENA's five-part Lebanon series features the story of Meriam Prado Dubal, a Filipino domestic worker who has seen the dark side of the country's 'help' industry and lived to tell the tale. Sadly, not everyone does, as Farah Salka, co-founder of the Anti Racism Movement, explains. Salka also tackles Lebanon's Kafala system and the government's troubling reaction to attempts by migrant domestic workers to unionise. Produced and hosted by Venetia Rainey. Theme music by Youmna Saba.
