Interview: Ribal Al-Assad, opposition leader and first cousin of Syrian president

I spent the week in Switzerland at the St. Gallen Symposium, discussing the myriad practical ways that people, young and old, can go about improving the world. 

A colleague of mine and I were invited to interview Ribal Al-Assad, founder of the Organization for Democracy and Freedom in Syria – and first cousin of Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad.

Watch the London-based activist answer our tough questions here.

And of course, I gave Qatar a shout out!
