  • Episode 8: Cliimate Talk Uganda with Josephine Karungi
    Sep 26 2024
    Agriculture + Forestry = Agroforestry. Growing trees and agricultural crops together in a complementary relationship has been happening for thousands of years. In this episode we hear from two locations: Bukerere Village in Central Uganda and Rhino Camp Refugee Settement in the Arua District, in the north west of the country. From these geographically distinct areas we hear first-hand how agroforestry works, and why it's one way communities can practice sustainable and profitable agriculture in a changing climate. With agronomist Brian Namanya and Cathy Watson of World Agroforestry. You can find out more about the work of World Agroforestry here: https://www.worldagroforestry.org/staff/cathy-watson

    Between 75% and 80% of women provide farm labor in Uganda, yet only around 25% of women own land in their own right. Josephine Karungi examines how this impacts the ability of women to adapt to climate change, and the knock on effects on family wellbeing. We hear from farmer Kyomuhendo Annet Katusiime in Buwanuka, on how a changing climate necessitates new approaches to farming; and from Carol Kayanja of the Uganda Community Based Association for Women and Children Welfare about the ways climate change affects women differently to men.

  • Episode 6: Climate Talk Uganda with Josephine Karungi
    Sep 6 2024
    The compelling Agnes Kirabo of Uganda's Food RIghts Alliance joins us this week from the Africa Food Systems Forum in Kigali, with her take on the conversations happening there around climate change, hunger and nutrition. She shares a tip from her mother on the best time for planting, and her own perspectives on the challenges and opportunities that climate change is bringing to Uganda. Our in-depth chat was recorded in June of this year - the first of many, we hope, with one of the most dynamic and articulate voices in Uganda. Agnes Kirabo is the Executive Director of the Food Rights Alliance, and has a long history of fighting for the eradication of hunger and malnutrition. You can find out more about the work of the Food RIghts Alliance here: https://fra.ug/ And the Africa Food Systems Forum here: https://agrf.org/ And as always, if you'd like to get in touch, drop us a line: climatetalkpod@gmail.com
