The podcast "This is Europe" explores two ground-breaking European projects in its October 2021 episode. After a flight from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, Bruno Tot of the Croatian Blind Union presents his observations, emphasising initiatives to improve autonomous travel for the blind. Psychiatrist Dr. Georges Karam talks about an Interreg-funded project that is transforming mental health assistance and senior care in Lebanon while addressing significant deficiencies in the country's healthcare system, despite the country's severe social problems.
