In this collaborative project, two Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø doctoral students devised and hosted a podcast series, entitled SuperdiverseÏã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø.ÌýThe podcast seeks to promote cultural awareness and inclusiveness at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø by guesting Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²ÊÖÐÌØÍø students from various cultural backgrounds to share their views and experiences during biweekly conversations.

The project and podcast is called ‘superdiverse’ because the project partners want to showcase and celebrate diversity, not simply label students by their race, ethnicity, or nationality. They note that 'we understand that everyone’s journey is unique, and we’d like to hear about the different views and stories that each individual journey has brought.' The project aims to empower students through participating in and listening to the podcast, to feel able to contribute to cross-cultural discussions in an active way. It is also envisaged that the conversations will introduce students to new perspectives, and virtually accompany them at this unprecedented time.Ìý

The series is available on Soundcloud and the project website can be accessed .Ìý
