UMD Heritage tour linking young Macedonians with their ancestral roots

The United Macedonian Diaspora and its Birthright Macedonia program has launch its GRAND HERITAGE TOUR of MACEDONIA for the summer of 2020, targeting in particular, young Macedonians who have never visited the republic and are unfamiliar with their ancestral roots. Organizers are also hoping the 10-day tours, headed by a qualified historian, will correct some of the misinformation touted by foreign tour companies currently operating in Macedonia, presenting 'their' versions of Macedonian history. UMD Director for Australia Ordan Andreevski chats with SBS Macedonian.
