À propos de ce contenu audio

At Global Diversity Foundation, our work is informed by the belief that storytelling and radical imagination are vital forces for social transformation. Our podcast programming consists of a growing constellation of sonic spaces where voices from around the world meet, reflect, and reimagine pathways to more just, regenerative futures. Through three distinct series — Seeding Stories for Change, Patchwork of Belonging, and Rewor[l]ding Conservation — we explore the interwoven challenges of our time, from climate breakdown and cultural erosion to systemic injustice and the search for connection.

Seeding Stories for Change brings together grassroots voices, activists, artists and scientists to share grounded stories of hope, resilience, and radical imagination. Together, we explore how seeds of change are being planted in communities, ecosystems, and institutions — and how these stories can grow into transformative action.

Patchwork of Belonging is a sound-rich tapestry of fiction, documentary, field recordings, and poetic storytelling. It journeys through the fractured landscapes of identity and home, amplifying voices often marginalized in mainstream narratives. Through intimate stories of struggle and solidarity, it asks how we might restore our sense of belonging in a world marked by crisis and fragmentation.

Rewor[l]ding Conservation rethinks what conservation can mean when rooted in justice, kinship, and humility. Through conversations with indigenous leaders, grassroots organizers, donors, artists and more-than-human voices, we examine the language, power, and possibilities of conservation in a time of planetary collapse. What needs to be reimagined? And can the word “conservation” still hold the world we hope to sustain?

      Rewor(l)ding Conservation #3: At the Shores of the River Tagus
      Sep 9 2025

      For this new episode of “Rewor(l)ding Conservation”, we invited curator, researcher and pedagogue Margarida Mendes to open up her sonic archives around the Tagus river in Portugal, unpacking her practice as a multidisciplinary researcher exploring how sound can be used not only to describe, but also to sense changing ecosystems.

      Situating herself in the watery world of the Tagus wetland, and drawing from her PhD research “Sensorial Ecologies”, in this two-part episode we follow Mendes’ voice as she introduces her work around how sonic practices can be mobilised towards ecological and community reparation and conservation. Her storytelling offers an example of how listening can shape one’s understanding of the environment, mediated by sensing infrastructures, interspecies interactions, and the impacts of extractive industries.

      The second part of the episode is an invitation to engage with deep listening, opening our ears to the flows and ebbs of the river, guided by meditative scores that bring us to an embodied relationality with its fluxes and pulses.

      Joined by the Gifted Mothers of Dar Bellarj, the workshop centered the liberating acts of zine-making and planting as tools for community connection and environmental awareness.

      Listen in as the mothers read their heartfelt contributions to the collective zine created during the workshop and share sincere reflections about connection to land. Heiba Lamara offers insight into her interdisciplinary practice, weaving gardening and publishing into a vibrant methodology for collective storytelling and ecological care.
