Topical Talk Festival is LIVE – and we're pleased to share the first of two "breaking news" topics.

In December 2024, after over 50 years of rule by the Assad family, Syrian rebel groups took control of the country.

Many Syrians celebrated in the streets, hopeful for a new beginning after years of war. But what will happen next?

Will this be a turning point for Syria and its people? And what new challenges lie ahead?
