INTERVIEW: Oxfam CEO on the climate-induced crisis in East Africa

from Climate calling

East Africa is one of the world’s worst-hit regions by climate change and is now experiencing its worst climate-induced extreme weather, fuelling an alarming hunger crisis, despite contributing almost nothing to global carbon emissions. As a result more than 26 million people are currently facing acute hunger across Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, and South Sudan, because of a two-year drought and years of flooding, compounded by displacement and conflict. SBS's Catalina Florez talks to the CEO of Oxfam Australia, Lyn Morgain, who is in Nairobi having spent a few days touring the region.
