Welcome to “Voices of Culture,” the podcast that bridges the gaps in our fast-paced, often disconnected world presented Dr. Lida Tsene, your host, and produced by Dina Ntziora. In an era where meaningful connections can feel increasingly rare, “Voices of Culture” aims to foster compassion, build a sense of community, and reimagine the ways we engage with one another.

Each episode offers a chance to delve into the varied experiences and solutions emerging from different communities, reminding us that despite our differences, we are all united in the fight for a sustainable future.

Join us as we explore the power of shared experiences, celebrate cultural diversity, and bring you stories that inspire, uplift, and unite. Welcome to “Voices of Culture,” where every voice matters and every story has the power to connect us all.

The direct urgency in the working context of “Voices of Culture” lies in addressing the growing need for meaningful connections and compassionate narratives amidst climate anxiety. As the world becomes increasingly digital and fast-paced, many people feel isolated or disconnected from their communities, exacerbated by the pressures of environmental crises. The initiative counters this trend by creating a virtual space where individuals, including refugees and migrants, can share, listen, and resonate with stories of resilience and hope. By doing so, “Voices of Culture” strives to inspire a renewed sense of community and empathy, fostering a positive impact on individuals’ lives and encouraging collective action against climate change.
