When
I tell people I make podcasts for The Conversation and that we
interview academics, they often ask me what kind of topics do
you cover? I reply that to thanks the breadth and depth of
research taking place in universities around the world our
range is extraordinary. And that’s certainly the case in our
podcasts from 2023.
In
our flagship global show The
Conversation Weekly, we’ve run stories about breakthroughs
in malaria vaccines, to the extinction of Neanderthals, to
domicide in Syria. And in September, we ran Inside
the Oslo Accords, a three-part series with academics James
Rodgers and Amnon Arran marking 30 years since the Oslo peace
process. Their conversations with some of the leading figures
from Israel-Palestine peace negotiations in the 1990s are a
must-listen for anyone trying to understand the faltering
history of peace in the Middle East. Below you’ll find links
to highlights and spin-off articles from shows.
