Episode 3 of 4

Ö÷²¥´óÐã World Service and British local radio stations look at issues of concern to different diaspora communities in Britain.

World Have Your Say and World Service Languages team up with Ö÷²¥´óÐã radio stations throughout the UK to bring a series of programmes to look at issues of interest to different diaspora communities. In a three-way partnership we will bring presenters from each national or local Ö÷²¥´óÐã radio station together with presenters from Ö÷²¥´óÐã World Service English and the different World Service Languages. Each programme is broadcast live around the world on the Ö÷²¥´óÐã World Service and on the local or National Ö÷²¥´óÐã station – uniting different communities in a unique link up. Each broadcast has a live audience who debate topics put together by the Ö÷²¥´óÐã radio stations and the Language services. They respond to questions and comments from our international audience.

The third programme is from Radio Manchester presenter Mike Sweeny. He will be joined by Umber Khairi from Ö÷²¥´óÐã Urdu service and Chloe Tilley from World Have Your Say in the broadcast from The Irish World Heritage centre and will focus on the Pakistani community in Manchester and the challenges faced by the different generations in Manchester.
