Anita Rani, A&E doctor Javid Abdelmoneim and hostile environment expert Ben Timberlake discover how Zaatari, a refugee camp in Jordan for Syrians fleeing the war, has grown from a handful of tents in the desert to a fully functioning city of 80,000 people. In this episode, Anita investigates how Zaatari is building a new infrastructure that will bring it in line with any other modern metropolis.
