Radio Netherlands Worldwide PROGRAMME PREVIEW Saturday 5 July - Friday 11 July 2008
Welcome to our weekly guide to Radio Netherlands Worldwide's English Service - a list of the new programmes coming up on Radio Netherlands Worldwide this week, beginning on Saturday.
SATURDAY 5 JULY
*** The State We're In ***
Jonathan Groubert and his team look at current events from an unexpected perspective
This week in TSWI, we ask what it means to be stateless. We talk to the lawyer for a prisoner in Guantánamo Bay.
And did you know that everyone has the legal right to a name? In some countries, like Somalia or Afghanistan, only a small percentage of births is registered. We look at why so many children officially don't exist, and what this means for their future.
Finally, bicycles: are they a two-wheel test of the human condition? Bicycling couriers tell how they often meet with danger and aggression on the road. That's this week, on The State We're In.

*** Global Perspective ***
"Escape to New Zealand"
During the summer months we take a break from RadioBooks to present our annual Global Perspective series. Eight national and international broadcasters give their local perspective on a topic of global interest. This year the theme is Escape.
Notable for its geographical isolation and clean environment New Zealand has long been a refuge for those wishing to escape the more populated parts of the planet and seeking a life that is less affected by the effects of global warming and the impact of global pollution. "Escape to New Zealand" is presented by Halina Ogonowska Coates of Radio New Zealand.

*** Global Perspective ***
"Escape to New Zealand"
During the summer months we take a break from RadioBooks to present our annual Global Perspective series. Eight national and international broadcasters give their local perspective on a topic of global interest. This year the theme is Escape.
Notable for its geographical isolation and clean environment New Zealand has long been a refuge for those wishing to escape the more populated parts of the planet and seeking a life that is less affected by the effects of global warming and the impact of global pollution. "Escape to New Zealand" is presented by Halina Ogonowska Coates of Radio New Zealand.

Lively discussion and thought-provoking reports about and from the African continent. We're giving the microphone to Diaspora groups in Europe and linking up with stations in Africa. The show goes beyond the clichés of starving children and war-ridden countries and seeks to bring you genuine voices from a vibrant continent.
