Peru: disaster risk reduction and climate change
Gabriel Nime, 9 (red t-shirt), Luis Angelo Nime, 8 (yellow t-shirt), and Edwin Valverde, 8, play inside the gulley caused by erosion after strong rains and floods in Vicus, Chulucanas, near Piura in NW Peru.
Vicus, like many places in the area, is prone to flooding and landslides, as the nearby river may change its course dramatically when it rains heavily. Oxfam and its partner Centro Ideas is supporting the local civil defence committee to be better prepared for when disaster strikes.
