PANGEA sigue adelante con su propósito de dar a conocer otras culturas y servir como vía para la interculturalidad.
El undécimo capítulo de la cuarta temporada se ha dedicado a ¡GUINEA ECUATORIAL!
Presentado por Fernando Chico, hemos conocido más en profundidad la
cultura de este país africano a través de un fantástico
amigo: Ricardo (Ebibeyin).
Además hemos difundido aspectos y hechos acerca de otros países en la sección en inglés 'Did you know...?'. Sin abandonar la lengua de Shakespeare, hemos abordado un asunto de actualidad internacional cuya cobertura mediática no es tan amplia. En concreto, la propuesta de cambiar el himno canadiense para que refleje la igualdad de género.
Hemos
explicado el Carnaval del Toro de Ciudad Rodrigo (Salamanca). Y finalmente, hemos adornado el programa con música del
mundo.

Equatorial Guinea hosts many different ethnic groups within its borders |
The eleventh episode of the fourth season has been focused on EQUATORIAL GUINEA!
Hosted by Fernando Chico, we've known more in depth the culture of this African country through a fantastic friend: Ricardo
(Ebibeyin)
Do you know what the differences are among ethnic group, clan and tribe? How many different ethnic groups are there in Equatorial Guinea? What are the main ones? Are they all widespread around the country? Are they all Bantu descendants? How are the relations among them? Is it often to find interethnic marriages? What are the points of union in such a varied country? When is Spanish used? When are the native languages used? What is the current status of the native languages? Did you know that Spanish, French and Portuguese are the official languages in Equatorial Guinea? Did you know that Equatorial Guinea recently joined the Community of Portuguese-Speaking Countries? What is the role of the elder people in the Guinean society? What is the role of the women in such a patriarchal society? What sort of social functions do they have? How well/bad perceived is to show affect in public? How is complimenting perceived? What is the perception of sex in the Guinean society? What is the Spanish heritage in the Guinean culture?
Besides, we've spread some aspects and facts about other countries in our segment in English 'Did you know...?'. Still using Shakespeare's mother tongue, we've explained a current international issue whose broadcasting is not being that wide. Specifically, the purpose to change the Canadian anthem to make it gender equal.
