Summary
This document is a role-playing card for a 'social lottery' exercise featuring a character named Semir, a pastoralist in Ethiopia, designed to facilitate group discussions on drought, information access, and community initiatives.
Key insights
- The character Semir, a pastoralist, expresses that a lack of advance information regarding rain forecasts and the condition of water and vegetation makes animal movement feel 'fraught with risk', specifically noting concerns that camels are not receiving sufficient water and vegetation.
- The scenario highlights barriers to community participation, as the character missed a neighbourhood meeting about drought because they were not informed and were physically unable to attend due to the need to tend animals in grazing lands.
- The exercise introduces potential interventions for the character to consider, including weather forecasts and water location data to improve flock health, as well as an organized initiative to provide credit for women and vegetable cultivation in town.
