Frequently Asked Questions

Edition #6: Serbia, Nepal, Latin America

Deutsch: Diese sechste Ausgabe unserer Reihe „Realities From Abroad – Corona worldwide“ – eine internationale Serie der Frequently Asked Questions Redaktion inkludiert auch Übernahmen anderer Radios. Zunächst ist Fabian aus Belgrad zu hören, der für Realities From Abroad eine Reihe von Fragen auf Englisch beantwortet hat: Welche aktuellen Pandemiemaßnahmen gelten da, wo er lebt, und wie geht es ihm damit?

Danach folgen zwei Übernahmen in deutscher Sprache, die ebenfalls Einblicke in die aktuelle Situation in anderen Ländern der Welt liefern: Der Alternative Nachrichtendienst ANDI von Radio Orange blickte kürzlich auf Nepal, das gerade besonders mit der Pandemie zu kämpfen hat. Isabella Friesner sprach mit Mona Sherpa von Care Nepal, einer Organisation, die sich für nachhaltige Entwicklung und aktuell für Aufklärung rund um die Pandemie-Maßnahmen einsetzt.

Der zweite Beitrag ist eine Kurzreportage von Radio Onda vom Nachrichtenpool Lateinamerika über Comando Matico, eine medizinische Einrichtung von Indigenen im peruanischen Amazonasgebiet, die Covid aus der Not heraus mit der Traditionellen indigenen Heilkunst begegnet. Indigene Gemeinschaften Lateinamerikas sind von der Covid-19-Pandemie besonders stark betroffen, da sie oft abgelegen leben und keinen Zugang zum staatlichen Gesundheitssystem haben. Hier gibt es auch einen Artikel zum Hörbeitrag. Der Beitrag wird unbearbeitet übernommen und steht unter CC-BY-SA-Lizenz.

About the format: In our regular format Frequently Asked Questions, we let different people speak about how they are personally affected by the impacts of the pandemic, or they analyze different consequences on society. Since this health crisis does not stop at borders, we also look at other parts of the world, including occasional interviews in English. We are now dedicating an own new broadcast series to this international perspective. For “Realities From Abroad – Corona Worldwide”, our editorial team asked friends and relatives as well as former interview partners worldwide a series of questions about how they perceive the current pandemic situation in their region and society, how they feel, what worries them and what gives them hope. These people recorded themselves with their smartphones and sent us these audio snippets in german or english language.
