What's Hubbening This Week? By ImpactHUB Lisbon

Your speedy summary of the social impact scene in Lisboa, as seen from the gardens of north London. I'm currently on "gardening leave", so I'm just going to fling a few goodies your way that the Bureau Chief in Lisboa has delegated to me.

O Artigo: learn something new, see things from a different angle

Even though this is a super speedy reduced newsletter, your loyal correspondent has been podcasting A LOT recently, because I've been gardening alone...so that means passive education through the wonders of the internet. Allow me to share then, the Chernobyl Podcast.

If you haven't seen the series, see it. If you cannot access it, at least listen to this free series of audio programs which discuss the research and reality behind it. The podcast, and the tv series start with the following:
"What is the cost of lies? It's not that we will mistake them for the truth. The real danger is that if we hear enough lies, then we no longer recognise the truth at all. What can we do then?"
Well, if that's not relevant to our times (and remember I'm writing from Brexit Britain here), I don't know what is! It's fascinating and terrifying. Tune in.
