Time immemorial communities like the agro-pastoral communities of Otuke have interacted with their traditional environment and learned to study its behavior to predict and foretell weather and its changes. Knowing how to speak, feel, and listen to their environment guides them to decide what to do, when, why, with whom and how to do it much as they rarely explain why. This is their ‘Indigenous way of weather forecasting’.

I was able to travel quite a bit during this period and to spend time with my CARE colleagues, partners and our beneficiaries, visiting our Pepsi grant, STRENPO in both Kyenjojo and West Nile, our emergency work in Kyangwali and visiting GAC, NMFA and WAY projects in West Nile, including going to districts I had not yet been able to visit.
CARE’s global humanitarian mandate shall also come to bear as and when an emergency hits Uganda.
Thank you to all who supported us on this journey, including the untiring colleagues at CARE International in Uganda.
