CARE is working with six pastoralist and agro-pastoralist communities in North Eastern Kenya, to help them build their resilience to climate change through the Adaptation Learning Programme in Africa. In Nanighi community, near the Tana river, people are most impacted by more frequent and severe droughts and floods.

In June 2011, CARE worked with local journalists and women, elder men and young men from Nanighi community to share their stories about what impacts them most and why, and how they are coping. These digital photo stories are being used for community awareness-raising about climate change impacts; to understand and monitor change through the ALP programme over time; and for advocacy. They are integral to CARE's process of working with communities in setting priorities, and developing and monitoring adaptation strategies. Using the storytelling process, CARE will continue to work with the community members through the lifetime of the ALP programme to record adaptation activities.  The videos will be shared between communities in Kenya and other African countries where ALP works, with local and national governments and donors to hear community voices and evidence in a powerful way, and with other adaptation practitioners to share experiences and methods.
