Anupa Chaudhary
Anupa is a deaf woman. She advocates for inclusive disaster planning and local policy. These become even more important as climate phenomena become more extreme.
“Our Bara district of Madhesh province is located in the Terai region. Climate change has affected us everywhere. In Terai, it becomes scorching hot in summer and hot air runs due to this. The heat has doubled. In the rainy season, it rains heavily when it rains. Due to climate change, there is also a dry spell and the land dries out.”
