Colombia :: Participatory Video on adaptation to climate change In November 2012, Proplaneta worked with The Colombian Red Cross facilitating a participatory video with members of San Tropel, a Wayuú indigenous community located in El Pájaro, La Guajira.

Along with Red Cross volunteers, the community filmed 6 examples of how they are adapting their livelihoods to the different impacts of climate change.

After editing the video on a participatory approach, it was screened at a different village, also of Wayuú background, to promote community-to-community education. Following the screening, there was a debate on the lessons learned and which examples could be adopted by that community.
