Ethnographic research undertaken locally has demonstrated a deep and widespread understanding of the connections between climate impacts, livelihoods, health and environment among the community members who are calling for better health services. Community education which incorporates topics beyond pure health messages is proving a valuable way to engage and reach more people on sexual and reproductive health.

Much messaging around climate change and conservation issues can be counterproductive instead spreading anxiety and despair. However, there are actions we can take every day that not only affect positive good in the realm of what we can influence but improve our mental health and prepare us to affect wider change together in the future. Giuseppe through his work and animation company Motion Aptitude shares with us how to spread actionable messages and help others on the path to feel positive and in control of the reality we face.

For this week's podcast, I am delighted to have back Chinedu Mogbo calling us from Lagos, Nigeria to tell us about his incredible work with the variety of wildlife he has rescued.

Chinedu began the Green Fingers Wildlife Conservation Initiative by himself and has undergone great difficulty to keep the sanctuary going through economic crises and an environment often hostile to his work.
