Khartoum Podcast is a series of episodes that explore the city of Khartoum from different social, cultural, and political aspects through the lenses of specialists, urbanists, artists, and other inhabitants of the city. The podcast discusses the relationship between people, culture, and history to get a better understanding of how Khartoum, the city we live in, is continuously being shaped every day.

By using a research-based approach for creating the episodes’ content, the podcast attempts to create an interactive experience that generates conversations and discussions on current Sudanese topics. Each episode will be accompanied by an essay in both English and Arabic citing all references used in the podcast. The interviews conducted for the podcast will be used to launch an online audio library of Sudanese knowledge and history which will be available to the public soon.

This podcast was produced by The Urban Episode, a research studio that focuses on the city and urban topics, for Sudan Moves, a project initiated and funded by the Goethe-Institut Sudan.
