Summary
This document is a role-playing exercise guide designed to help participants empathize with a physically impaired herder facing economic and psychological distress due to recurrent floods and conflict.
Key insights
- The persona described is a 26-year-old married man with four children who is physically impaired after losing his left leg during a violent conflict over grazing land. He experiences depression due to the struggle to provide for his family, though he does not discuss these feelings because "it’s not what a man does."
- Recurrent floods have reduced the persona's livestock flock, leading him to sell milk in peri-urban areas. He faces significant risks due to a lack of advance information regarding rain forecasts and the condition of water and fodder, which makes it difficult to assure customers of a consistent milk supply.
