The Irish Latin American Connection<\/strong> is a\u00a0<\/em>4 part\u00a0<\/em>series of programmes\u00a0that\u00a0looks at the experiences of Irish people who have in the recent past lived and campaigned for causes in Latin America.\u00a0\u00a0 We will examine their motives for travelling, their contribution to the countries they lived in and how these experiences have shaped their lives and careers back in Ireland.\u00a0 And while doing this, we will touch on some global issues affecting Ireland, Europe and Latin America.<\/p>\n

Programme 2:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In programme 2, we look at the experience of food producers, Emanuela Russo and Fergal Anderson, who moved to county Galway, Ireland in September 2011 to start a small vegetable farm. Emanuela and Fergal have travelled to Mexico and Guatemala, where they worked with local farming organisations and indigenous farmers. Their Latin American experience inspired them to become farmers themselves.<\/p>\n

We are also joined by Karen Jeffares (Peace Brigades International), Hilary Daly (Trocaire) and Maeve Bateman (Debt and Development coalition) to discuss how important it is to act locally for global change.<\/p>\n
