Whether you're a Briton aboard who wants to keep in touch with home, or someone who just wants to keep in touch with a nation that still has an impact on the world out of proportion with its size, the Guardian Weekly will deliver the goods, with a concentrated focus on the key political, social and cultural news, plus some of the quirky events that contribute to a national reputation for eccentricity, as chronicled by columnist Derek Brown.
Other sections:
In the Guardian Weekly review section you'll venture into different cultures, different worlds, whether it is hearing from Kenyans of different tribes of what that identity means to them, or visiting an Indian village where the peasants are struggling to come to terms with a globalised market, or learning just how good the Taiwanese have become at recycling their rubbish.
Since the Weekly draws on not only the substantial editorial resources of the Guardian and Observer, but also Le Monde and Washington Post, you’ll learn about parts of the world often ignored. One week you might be visiting the Quebecois Inuit in the far northern reaches of Canada, the next watching an historic quarter of Kabul being rescued from neglect, the week after learning that the EU has finally agreed the cultivation of the African baobab tree in Europe.
You can also read, in the long-running and much-enjoyed "Letter From" section, a Weekly reader's account of their lives, wherever they are in the world, from a little fishing village in Madagascar, to the embassy district of Beijing, or the Australian Outback.
Other sections:
While some of the world prospers, hundreds of millions of people are trapped living on $2 a day or less. Can international aid help them out of the trap? Can some of the diseases that cut hideous swathes through their children be stopped? Is population growth swamping what progress has been made?
The Guardian Weekly's International Development section looks into and beyond the aid industry, looking particularly for the stories of successes, good news about projects that have improved the lives of the world's poorest people.
You might read about the success of microfinance in Africa, the impacts of dams in Latin America, or the roadblocks on the way to the global eradication of polio.
Other sections:
The world of science is fast-moving and complex. Is the latest splash daily headline about the cause of cancer or an oil-replacing fuel just a flash in the pan or something you must know about?
With the Guardian Weekly's science section you get sober, serious, and fascinating reporting and analysis on the key issues.
Is the human race evolving, or going backwards? What sources of renewable energy really have prospects in our oil-driven economies? What is really happening with the world's climate?
The Weekly draws on the considerable editorial resources of the Guardian and Observer, plus Le Monde and Washington Post, to bring you the latest authoritative science journalism.
