| Sumario: | Radio is a powerful tool for sharing climate information, particularly with rural communities in Africa. On World Radio Day, learn how AICCRA and partners are collaborating with FM radio stations and communities to develop and promote climate information and agro-advisories through radio to more than 400,000 listeners in Kenya. In the arid and semi-arid lands of Kenya, pastoralists and agro-pastoralists are seeking knowledge on climate adaptation and are implementing various innovative practices, including diversification into food and crop production, to better cope with climate-related challenges. To support these efforts, AICCRA, the Kenya Meteorological Department (KMD), Association of Women in Agriculture Kenya (AWAK), county government extension, and community groups are scaling access to and use of drought-tolerant crops, best agronomical practices and climate information services, and seasonal forecasts, using a unique channel: co-produced radio drama and radio talk shows on county FM radio stations.
