Episode 475 - FROM RÚV's FOREIGN DESK: CAMPAIGNS AGAINST FEMICIDE

The foreign news desk here at RÚV produces a radio programme about foreign affairs, Heimskviður. It is broadcast on Rás 1 on Saturday afternoons.

Many of the interviews that are recorded for Heimskviður happen in English, and occasionally here on RÚV English Radio you'll have the chance to hear some of those interviews, in full.
