Episode #4 explores the intersection of climate change, economic development, and conflict on the African continent. In this episode, Willa Dow interviews Anthony Nyong, the Director of Climate Change and Green Growth at the African Development Bank, to discuss a number of issues regarding how poverty, violence, and climate change can lead to a “catastrophic convergence.” The episode is informed by Willa’s own research on how colonial legacies have impacted the ways Africans are experiencing and adapting to climate change.
