NERC and DfID funded SHEAR project, ForPAc: Towards Forecast Based Preparedness Action. Led from @SussexGeog Working on #ForecastBasedAction
So pleased our new @ForPAc_SHEAR paper led by @Buinah is out! It provides a C/S of Kenya's 🇰🇪drought management system & how it could become more anticipatory - helping to fill the knowledge gap about mainstreaming Forecast-based Action. Open access👀bit.ly/3xweUDw

Lovely analogy from Emmah Mwangi @ForPAc_SHEAR @KenyaRedCross on change-‘you don’t go into someone’s house and move the furniture without understanding why it is like that’ #GHACOF54
Back to work after wonderful @ForPAc_SHEAR @SHEAR_Programme mtg last week. We spent time learning from stakeholders & reflecting about what worked & what didn't in our forecast pilots in Nairobi & Kitui last yr. We've got a lot to say & do in 2020! #climatescience #actionresearch
Happening now!!! Emmah Mwangi @ICHA_Intl @ForPAc_SHEAR presenting results of research check at #GDP19 forpac.org/resources
Over past 2 days @ForPAc_SHEAR team pieced together 2 years of work on forecast skill assessment, institutional mapping & stakeholder engagements to plan how we can introduce forecasts to drought planning in Kenya. Best day on the job #timeforatusker
