The 90-year-old using sports to change the lives of refugees

Claude Marshall fled Nazi Germany as a small boy in the 1930s and now helps today’s refugees by fundraising for sports facilities in refugee camps.

He tells Radio Davos why sport is so important for traumatised young people, and compares the plight of people today forced from their home with his own childhood experience.
