During every P.O.V. broadcast, we let viewers know they can find out more about certain topics on the P.O.V. website by running text alerts across the bottom of the TV screen. Some of the alerts describe features on the P.O.V. website and others are about websites or features elsewhere online that we recommend. In order to make it easier for you to find the features and links related to these topics, we've put together this new resource page listing all the alerts in one place.

Experts discuss the repatriation of refugees from Africa

In Search of a Durable Solution
In 2004, we asked five experts from the field to talk about the complex issues around working with refugees. Three years later, in conjunction with the 2007 P.O.V. films "Rain in a Dry Land" and "Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars," we checked in once again to see what has changed in the plight of refugees around the world, and what has remained the same.
