Tell your story

This initiative aims at collecting stories on how life feels like for local health workers at the frontlines in conflict zones. This includes stories from local doctors, nurses, administrators, midwives, ambulance drivers and first responders who are working in proximity to the frontlines in their countries. The objective is to communicate the exceptional and personal experiences and reflections of health workers to the public and decision makers in the UK and beyond. This will support the ongoing campaigns advocating the respect and protection of health care during conflicts.

Tips for telling a great story
  • Tell your story as if you were talking to a friend or a relative. Make it personal.
  • Add photos! It is best if the first photo you add is a nice image of yourself so that people can see you as they listen to or read your story.
Tips for audio recording
  • You can re-record as many times as you want. Take a couple of practice runs until it feels more natural talking into your computer.
  • Try not to use a pre-written script so that your story sounds as natural as possible. It is ok if it is not perfect.
  • Try to speak as clearly as possible, and get as close to the microphone as you can.
  • Try to find a quiet place with no background noise. It is even better if the room has carpet. This will reduce the amount of echo on the recording.
