Paseo Podcast: Sharing Puerto Rican Stories
Society & Culture
Mónica Feliú Mójer, Ph.D. joins the show today. She is a scientist, science communicator & project lead for the Aquí Nos Cuidamos, which is an award-winning community engagement project that promotes COVID-19 prevention and the well-being of vulnerable and marginalized communities in Puerto Rico through culturally relevant multimedia education, community engagement, science and solidarity.

In the first half of the show, we break down the latest Puerto Rican News Headlines, including:
