Worldview brings to the consciousness of listeners, how people around the world THINK and EXPERIENCE the world. It brings the voices of people as they tell us how the situation in which THEY live can be better understood. AS a former Peace Corps Volunteer, I know how deeply the actual PLACE can only be understood by people THERE, and how valuable sharing that LIVING perspective is to decision makers in the US. One of the particularly interesting segments Worldview provides is the part about Chicago individuals working abroad, to help make lives easier for people around the world. These stories make WBEZ a uniquely valuable station; if you remove this program, you are reducing our sources of international understanding.
