	Description:		The numbers of refugees or displaced people around the world has risen dramatically in the last two decades. This increase conflict has also disrupted the education of millions of children, who go on to face an uncertain start in the world of work. We examine what is being done, by speaking to Dr Mary Joy Pigozzi, director of the Educate a Child programme at the Education Above All Foundation. Also in this edition: a viola player who suffered hearing loss during a rehearsal has successfully won damages from his employer. Sarah Willis, a French horn player with the Berlin Philharmonic orchestra, tells us what impact this could have on the music industry. The BBC's Regan Morris reports from California on the development of meat that has been grown in a laboratory. And how an iconic artwork from Syria - destroyed by the Islamic State group - has been recreated in London, using tins that once held date syrup. All this and more, discussed with Peter Morici, professor of International Business at the University of Maryland in Washington, and Shao Lan, a Taiwanese entrepreneur living in London.
