Get up & go Colombia: Building peace through tourism

Get Up and Go Colombia is an NGO that promotes tourism in some of the regions that have been most affected by the country's armed conflict. Its co-founder Luisa Romero joins us to chat about the organisation's various projects, how it has adapted to the challenges posed by coronavirus and her concerns that the ongoing crisis may undo some of the progress made in remote areas in recent years. She also tells us about her experience meeting the Dalai Lama last year and how she had to practically re-learn her English while doing a master's degree in Northern Ireland!
