@andkatto @PlieningerLab @GaelleNdayizeye Of course there are ethical aspect to account for when working with photos that may matter even more if you work in disaster contexts. Welcome to email me if you'd like to discuss ideas/experiences before starting your own project.

[Laura Kmoch 🦣 @[email protected] @LauraKmoch]

@Tsitati_George @PlieningerLab @GaelleNdayizeye That's interesting. What will you be working on in that village? Let me know if sharing more specific experiences may be helpful. Though as I wrote in the blogpost, I'm still new to using this method.

[Laura Kmoch 🦣 @[email protected] @LauraKmoch]

@andkatto @PlieningerLab @GaelleNdayizeye That's great! In what context do you use the method and how have your experiences been so far?

Mud and thunder ⚡️ shaped our most recent #fieldwork days for the #RESTORE project. So we are really looking forward to more ☀️ today in Jenda, where farmers' potatoe fields are in full bloom.

[Laura Kmoch 🦣 @[email protected] @LauraKmoch]

@BIZIMANAEric1 Yes, we didn't expect this much rain during this time of the year.
