Mauke Rauti Para Report
The Rauti Para Tablet Training Project, funded by SPC EU GCCA: PSIS in partnership with the SRIC CC Adaptation Fund, continued on the island of Mauke from 7 - 11 April 2014. Implementing agencies were Climate Change Cook Islands and the ICT divisions from the Office of the Prime Minister, Telecom Cook Islands, and Rauti Para (NGO).
The initiative of the project was to up-skill senior citizens in the Pa Enua (outer islands) to confidently use tablets to communicate and access information on the web to assist them with decision-making in building resilience to the slow onset of climate change. Secondly, a video documentary supported by a questionnaire survey to substantiate changes observed by people on their respective islands was conducted parallel to the tablet training to collect quantitative data to establish climate change indicators.
