People living in drought-prone areas of East Nusa Tenggara experience the impacts of climate change first hand.

People living in drought-prone areas of East Nusa Tenggara experience the impacts of climate change first-hand. Climate change events threaten their food security and health. At the same time, local food sources are available in nature. Sorghum was previously cultivated as a local food in East Nusa Tenggara; however, it had long been abandoned since residents turned to rice over the past three decades. Restoring the Sorghum crop becomes one possible solution to address the impact of climate change and strengthen local food security in this region.
