This serial radio drama program aims to provide new methods, alternatives, suggestions and options to encourage improved farmer adaptation, both male and female, to the effects of climate change. It also aims to increase the acknowledgment of the important role of women, and encourage youth participation in agriculture.

The 26 episode series will be split into two sections, with each section focusing on 4 topics. 

Following the exciting 15 minute drama episode, an "expert" (such as a local extension worker) will debrief and provide greater information to the topic of the episode and methods farmers can undertake. The expert corner will be locally specific, given the differing agricultural practices and environments across the four listening states.

Listeners are encouraged to provide feedback via SMS, phone and mail, both individually and through encouraged listener and farmer groups.

The University of Guelph combining its research and input from partners have created a toolkit related to radio drama for development and climate change. An updated edition, both a printed handbook and a CD copy will be completed soon and will be available for free and open distribution on this site and some related sites.
