- These findings have guided subsequent interventions, including a low-cost local weather information system now serving over 1000 marginal farming families, as evidenced in an independent evaluation report, “Creative Communication to Promote Resilient Agricultural Practice: A Technology Stewardship Model” by the Development Resources Communication and Services Centre (NGO, West Bengal, 2020). The new system, based primarily on local volunteer effort and collaborative learning, has so far withstood 2 cyclones and a pandemic, as reported on by Chaudhuri & Kendall in “Collaboration without consensus: Building resilience in sustainable agriculture through ICTs” (The Information Society, 2021).
