Abstract
2022 marks the 40th anniversary of the Falklands War, an event which still shapes many people’s view of the islands. However, the Falkland Islands has, over the past 40 years, looked outward to assume a role of strategic significance as the ‘gateway to Antarctica’ and has capitalised on its rich biodiversity and extensive fisheries. However, it still faces a number of threats, whether from Argentina, climate change, Covid-19 or Brexit. In response to this, and to help provide a voice for the contemporary Falklands, we at the University of the West of England have produced a series of podcasts drawing on contributions from those who know the Falklands best: Falkland Islanders old and new, and those with a longstanding relationship with this British Overseas Territory.
