32 min - Robert from World Aral Region Charity on combating environmental disaster and giving cultural opportunity to the Uzbek youth
Kicking off the series, we speak to Robert and Muhiddin from World Aral Region Charity, a charity in Uzbekistan who engage in cultural and environmental initiatives with the people who live in the worst affected region of the Aral Sea. We dive into the causes of the disappearance of the lake, the changes to the landscape and implications of this and the mental and physical challenges this brings to those who live here such as depression and tuberculosis. We find out more about the creative opportunities WARC provides to young people in Uzbekistan and end with learning about traditional Uzbek culture and food.
