Doha Debates is a live debate show that is broadcast worldwide and is presented by journalist Ghida Fakhry. The program features renowned experts discussing the big, complex issues of our time, such as water supply, migration and climate change. It is a forward-thinking project that we, at La Plume Media, are proud to contribute to. In fact, our very own Gert-Jan has been directing Doha Debates since 2018 and sat in the director’s chair once again for the episode recorded this summer. Due to the COVID pandemic, those involved were unable to get together at the studio, which meant finding an alternative format. Using a webcast format, including a virtual studio developed by producer Kingcanary, provided the solution. Thanks to this technological workaround and the tight direction provided by Gert-Jan, the debate was ultimately able to take place!
