  • サマリー

  •  

    In Eastern Africa, fishers and herders have mostly relied on indigenous knowledge and traditional weather forecasters to predict the weather. This can include methods like reading goat intestines, and reading the dust clouds from beating shoes together. 

     

    As the climate changes, traditional communities need to understand what is happening to weather patterns to survive and adapt. Scientific forecasting can help – but it must be presented in ways that are understandable and have meaning for the communities. 

     

    In this episode, presenter Diana Njeru takes us on a journey to meet pastoralist herders and farmers, as well as representatives from Kenya’s Meteorological Office. She examines traditional beliefs around weather and climate, how these communities are experiencing the impacts of climate change, and how scientists are beginning to work alongside traditional forecasters to build trust and understanding.
