In this final episode of the Earth Network Podcast series, we travel to Ghana to learn how cultural heritage can support environmental conservation—and vice versa. We explore the Asante Traditional Buildings in Kumasi, Ghana, a UNESCO World Heritage site that embodies the rich cultural legacy of the Asante people.
These sacred structures not only showcase exceptional craftsmanship but also reflect the deep spiritual connection between the people and their natural surroundings. We discuss how these buildings are maintained, the role biodiversity plays in their preservation, and the challenges posed by climate change.
Joining us are two distinguished experts: Elizabeth Matilda, a heritage management expert from Ghana, and Dr. Olga Laiza Kupika, a climate and natural resources specialist from Botswana. Together, they share how communities are building resilience, integrating traditional knowledge with innovative solutions, and ensuring the sustainability of these remarkable cultural treasures.
Tune in for a powerful exploration of heritage preservation, community resilience, and the future of the Asante Traditional Buildings.
An episode hosted by Katharine Lovatt and produced by Ilse Campos and Emmanuel Rudowski.

Beschreibung

The UNESCO Earth Network Podcast series explores how UNESCO’s iconic designations — from Biosphere Reserves and Global Geoparks to World Heritage sites and living heritage practices — play a critical role in protecting biodiversity and building peace with nature.
In this five-episode series, we give voice to the scientific experts involved in this global initiative, sharing vital environmental knowledge to support local communities and national governments in achieving their biodiversity goals.
Because biodiversity conservation is about life. And to safeguard life, we must engage both society and science. This podcast places local communities at the centre — as knowledge-holders and key drivers of conservation and sustainable development.
Produced by UNESCO, with the support of the Government of Italy.
Hosted by Ausha. See ausha.co/privacy-policy for more information.
