Loss and Damage, Hope and Recovery

In conversation with Rev Bob Kikuyu, Christian Aid’s Head of Global Theology

The impacts of the climate crisis are already being widely felt, devastating the lives of billions globally and destroying livelihoods. In Eastern Africa, five failed rainy seasons have led to the worst drought in forty years affecting Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, and South Sudan. Some climate impacts can be adapted to, but Loss and Damage occurs when the limits of adaptation are reached and the effects of climate change can no longer be minimised.

Guest speaker, Rev Bob Kikuyu lives and works in Nairobi, Kenya. Bob will help us to reflect theologically on the Loss and Damage caused by the climate crisis and suggest ways in which we can find Hope and Recovery.
