Amelia Earhart, Microscopes and the Mental Health Crises of Northern Ireland

<p data-pm-slice="0 0 []">On 20th May 1932, a 34-year-old woman set off from Newfoundland, the easternmost province of Canada. She flew for almost 15 hours, and created aviation history. She was supposed to land in Paris, but ended up in Derry, Northern Ireland. Almost 60 years later, just below the hill she landed, lived a young 8 year old girl who was given a microscope as a gift. But what connects a pioneering American aviator to a young girl? This week, in the eleventh episode of the series Ireland Untravelled, we follow the story of the 8 year old girl, who was just like many other children who grew up during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. Tune in, and discover the hidden mental health crisis of Northern Ireland, and the ability of nature to heal us.</p><p>Listen to Petardu by Delorentos<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNidr4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">: </a><u><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNidr4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2te0QzNid</a>r4</u></p><p>Till then Check out the other episodes of "Ireland Untravelled"</p><p>Lost Treasures, Dynamite and the Irish Nation : <a href="https://ivm.today/3okwxm5" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3okwxm5</a></p><p>Gaelic and the stunning decline of the Irish Language : <a href="https://ivm.today/3zmhE9i" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3zmhE9i</a></p><p>Trinity Long Room and the Soul of the Irish Nation : <a href="https://ivm.today/3PnZkSE" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3PnZkSE</a></p><p>U2, Body Snatching and the Irish Way of Death : <a href="https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3IQ6fl3</a></p><p>Bombay, Paris and the improbable victory for LGBTQ+ rights in Ireland : <a href="https://ivm.today/3AJLa9B" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://ivm.today/3AJLa9B</a></p><p>Irish roads that go nowhere, Houses no one lives in : <a href="htt
