Crop diversification & intercropping is an important risk minimizing strategy for drought proofing in the scarce rainfall regions. In contingency situations adoption of intercropping can be remunerative. @FAOclimate#agriculture#Livelihood@WGC_Climate@ActionAidIndia

Right to be human is denied for the unavailability of basic necessities like shelter. Gratefully acknowledge CIPLA Foundation in partnership with ActionAid and CCS for enabling dignified life for Meena, Ponmari, Raja, Sophia and Revathy with shelter in Tuticorin.
Adopting a gender-sensitive approach to disaster risk management is not only an issue of basic human rights but also an effective strategy in combating gender inequalities especially for women living in poverty and exclusion. #OurRightsForJustice
The social and economic costs of violence are enormous and have ripple effects thought out society .

For, how would millions of people living in degraded human settlements & at d lowest rungs of informality... act on this situation & how would governments respond, would perhaps determine the outcomes of how the Urban Question is resolved in the 21st Century.
The manner in which Bhakts & their lapdog channels are targeting Jignesh Mevani, shows how a young Dalit first time MLA who stands up to bullying & has the courage to confront communal thugs can rattle & shake up the BJP's house of cards, built on hate, abuse, bigotry & fake news
