Our Team was in Chikankata and Choma districts in Southern province and Nalolo district in Western province to conduct podcast pre-production meetings and stories of public engagement for the Canadian audience with its working groups, the Community Listening Groups (CLGs).
This is under the On-Air for Gender-Inclusive NbS for Climate Change Adaptation Project which is being implemented in partnership with Farm Radio International (FRI) in Eastern, Western, and Southern Provinces with financial support from Global Affairs Canada.
The project was designed to produce podcasts and stories for public engagement in Canada to speak to one intermediate outcome of increasing Canadian engagement in using nature-based solutions for climate change mitigation and adaptation in developing countries with biodiversity co-benefits.
And the podcasts (Nature Answers: Rural stories from a changing planet) are being done by two Canadian students. The podcasts will be recorded in various project sites.
Nature Answers is a podcast from FRI that shares stories from rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa, where some people are turning to nature for solutions to a changing climate.
