𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞: 🌍 𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐄𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐲𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐀𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚 Earlier this year, we launched an exciting impact collaboration to create demand-responsive early warning systems tailored to the needs of communities in the Horn of Africa. Following a comprehensive evidence gathered through our extensive literature review, we have now commenced with the field research phase. This critical step engages communities in Kenya and Ethiopia to: ✅ Understand barriers to accessing and using early warning communication channels. ✅ Identify preferred communication methods. ✅ Explore ways to integrate traditional knowledge and practices into early warning systems for greater impact. Our research teams, led by iShamba Limited in Kenya and Maanshiil Consult in Ethiopia, are conducting focus group discussions and key informant interviews across diverse communities in: 📍 Garbatulla (Pastoral) and Tharaka South (Agro-Pastoral), Kenya. 📍 Danot (Pastoral) and Haroreys (Agro-Pastoral), Ethiopia. These communities were selected to capture diverse perspectives across varying agroecological zones, livelihoods, and accessibility challenges. Through co-design workshops, we aim to develop community-driven recommendations to improve communication between early warning providers and communities, enhancing their ability to take anticipatory action and withstand shocks. 📅 Mark your calendar: Our literature review publication is coming in December 2024, with individual country reports to follow in the new year. 👉 Register to get a copy of the reports here! https://lnkd.in/eB_BkAKW For more information drop us an email at info@omevaconsulting.com or contact the project manager, Aurelie Anisa Walker at aurelie.walker@urbanforesight.org Together, we can empower communities to build resilience and adapt to an uncertain future. 💡 Urban Foresight, FAO, iShamba Limited, Jameel Observatory for Food Security Early Action #CommunityEngagement #EarlyWarningSystems #HornOfAfrica #ClimateAdaptation #Kenya #Ethiopia #CollaborativeResearch #DataToAction #ResearchForImpact
