*** Curious Orange ***
It's a radio show, it's a website, it's a lifestyle. It's Curious Orange - 30 minutes of Dutchness on Radio Netherlands Worldwide
This week on Curious Orange... Dutch politicians with a past of violent protest that's coming back to bite them, and organ grinders... love 'em or hate 'em, they're part of Dutch life... and we'll hear about the country's largest collection.
We'll also have our Dutch feature artist of the week - Giovanca - and we'll hear about Prinsjesdag (Budget Day) on Headlines from the Hague.
That's this week on Curious Orange.

*** The State We're In - Midweek Edition ***
Jonathan Groubert and his team look at current events from an unexpected perspective
This week in The State We're In, Midweek Edition: we look at how technology is being used to promote human rights. Egyptians, for instance, are using Facebook to organise protests.
A young Saudi blogger explains why he is willing to go to jail to write about human rights in his country. He loves his country, he wants it to change, and he thinks the risk is worth taking.
A Congolese radio show airs text messages from listeners asking about their rights. And the entire population can listen in on the answers given on air by the authorities.

Bridges with Africa
Where and how does one begin to solve Sudan's problems? We asked Norbert Braakhuis, the new Dutch ambassador to Sudan.
The World Bank has published its annual report Doing Business. We review Africa's ranking in terms of regulations for starting a business, getting credit, paying taxes and much more.
We have music from the African diaspora in Colombia.
Plus: 1.7 million. That's the number of victims of sexual crimes, the Trust Fund for Victims is aiming to help. We interview the director.
And finally: Women are the best invention God made! So says archbishop Desmond Tutu on Bridges with Africa.
That's conflict, business and women... on Tuesday's Bridges with Africa on Radio Netherlands Worldwide.

*** Earthbeat ***
Marnie Chesterton looks at the footprint we're leaving on our planet.
Mention the cannabis plant here in the Netherlands and people will assume you're talking about smoking it. But the rather more benign form, Hemp, has a myriad of uses. Did you know the first jeans were made out of hemp? Well, fashions go in cycles and the newest ethical jeans are also made of the stuff. We try them for size, on Thursday's Earthbeat.
