Kaila-Ann Guiste | Surviving Storms Past Intern Podcast

A caller from Laudat, the highest village of Dominica (in the southern interior, above the the Roseau valley) calls the national radio station DBS to report weather conditions there during tropical storm Elsa, 2nd July 2021.

To mark the 6 year anniversary of tropical storm Erika (2015) and the 42 year anniversary of hurricane David (1979) we joined Dominican psychologists, professor and radio host Dr Simone Mathieu on her radio shot to discuss the Surviving Storms project and how we can learn from history to prepare for future storms. 

Adom Philogene (project lead), Kaila-Ann Guiste (Create Caribbean Intern) and Mrs Delia Cuffy-Weeks (Cultural activist) discussed oral tradition as archive, history as teacher and how folks can get involved in the project. Thanks to all involved. You can listed to the radio show in full here:
