Our audio documentary 'Living Heritage’ explores the experiences of residents in Cork from varied cultural background and how their own traditions have fused with the locality. Your host is author Cethan Leahy. You have tuned into part 2. In this instalment,  you hear from Dr. Manizha Khan and Lavie Olupona. Dr. Khan & Lavie share the strong connection between their respective cultures and nature.  This episode of 'Living Heritage' is a revelation. Their conversations describes the impact of war on nature (Dr. Khan) and beliefs anchored around nature (Lavie). Lavie also shares a poem.
