MADRE’s Peruvian partner organization CHIRAPAQ, who run the Sapinchikmanta (Voices for Justice) weekly radio program for Indigenous Peoples and by Indigenous Peoples, recently released a radio clip from an interview with Pedro Rivera Cea, an expert in food sovereignty and security. In the clip, Mr. Rivera Cea discusses the importance of considering Indigenous knowledge as a means to combat and mitigate the effects of climate change. The goal of the Sapinchikmanta program is to use radio to share important information on health, domestic violence, women’s political participation, food security, climate change and more to geographically isolated Indigenous communities in Peru.
