Children of Isis fighters: Is it time to bring them home?

We look at the children and wives of the Australian men who went to fight with ISIS. 47 of their children and 20 ISIS brides are still alive and stuck in refugee camps in Syria that hold people displaced by Islamic State. Their families have been pleading with Australian government to bring them home, and so far they’ve been refused, despite other Western countries having taken their ISIS brides and their children home.

Laws were introduced that allowed Australia to take away the citizenship of someone who joined ISIS, plus other terror laws which means if these women return home they could potentially face hefty penalties. So should we bring them home and try them under those laws rather than leave them in Syria?

To help answer this question, we're joined by Professor Guy Goodwin-Gill, Professor of Law at UNSW and Acting Director of the Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law. Our other guest is Matt Tinkler - Deputy CEO of Save the Children, an organisation working with women and children in the refugee camps.
