In this episode, hosts Mel and Perry are joined by Dr. Mariana Pereira, who is a post-doctoral research associate at the University of York. Mariana conducts her studies at the Heritage for Global Challenges Research Centre, and during our conversation, we will be diving into the complexities of migration and how the movement of people shapes our community landscape and traditions.
Dr Pereira is a researcher with Abundant Futures, a project commissioned by ArtHouse Jersey which explores food justice by highlighting knowledge and experiences of migrant communities and native populations. She will conduct interviews with project participants, gathering their perspectives on what it means to belong in a place. Dr Perreira asks 'what it means to be local', and in order to integrate with the existing community and become part of Island life, you don't need to leave your cultural identity behind.
