Episode 4 - Growing In The Desert
As one of Asia’s sunniest cities, with limited rainfall, there’s an assumption that little in the way of vegetation grows in Dubai. But if you know where to look, the green shoots are plentiful - and in this episode Kate meets the people managing to grow in the desert and carefully manage the city’s resources. She visits one its many ‘vertical farms’ - and goes beekeeping at the school which focuses on teaching children to engage with the environment.Watch the episode now: https://www.youtube.com/@dxbunheardFollow us on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/dxbunheard/

Dubai today is known as one of the world’s go-to luxury tourist destinations — home to more five-star hotels than anywhere else on the planet, famous for its luxury shopping malls and Michelin star restaurants. But in this series, Kate Garraway goes in search of another Dubai - the one that is unheard. A place where East meets West, where women can — and do — lead the way. Where science is saving resources, and selflessness is saving lives. Over eight episodes she meets the residents eager to turn what people think about the city on its head, and tell a totally different story about Dubai and its amazing people.
