The Baltic Triangle podcast is dedicated to delivering stories about people and businesses within the Liverpool City Region doing extraordinary things.
In this episode we brought the conversation back home and the guys will be talking to the new Baltic Triangle Chair Fiona Shaw. The area company has had a shake-up in the past few months recruiting new members to the Baltic Triangle board to pursue various portfolios.
In addition, Fiona talks about her own companies and interests that include Wordscapes and Ethos Magazine.
Our other guest is travel writer Rupert Wolfe Murray who has recently contributed to new a book written by Daoud Sarhandi. The publication exhibits a collection of Bosnian War Posters which Daoud collected shortly after the conflict.
The posters are arranged chronologically, with long captions, and it tells the story of Bosnia’s war. Young people in Bosnia Herzegovina are particularly interested because they don’t learn about the war in school – it’s too recent, too raw, too politicised – and they want to learn about it so they can avoid the mistakes of their parents. Young Bosnians also want to see how people communicated before the internet.

This is so relevant to what's happening in the Ukraine at the moment and the Baltic Triangle are already exhibiting art in venues to raise money for the Ukraine people who need it most.
