Break it Down

Good healthcare is not only the absence of illness but the complete social, mental, and physical well-being of humans. Governments work to improve healthcare with tools often referred to as policies. But citizens barely engage with these or other important conversations that impact their lives. The Break it Down Podcast is here to close that gap by simplifying and breaking down these concepts and policies so you can engage meaningfully. You should listen if you are someone curious about understanding how things work and contributing to conversations that impact our lives.You can reach us via podcasts@nigeriahealthwatch.com

Building Climate Resilient Agricultural Systems in Nigeria

April 18, 2025 • Nigeria Health Watch

In this episode of the Break It Down Podcast, our Senior Partnership Manager, Emeka Oguanuo, sits down with Temitope Adegoroye of Sahel Consulting to unpack the alarming impact of climate change on Nigeria's agricultural landscape.

As one of the most agriculturally dependent nations in the world, Nigeria’s food security is at serious risk due to shifting weather patterns, unpredictable rainfall, floods, and prolonged droughts. Temitope explores how these changes destabilise food production and livelihoods, particularly for smallholder farmers. The conversation also covers innovative solutions to adapt to these challenges, such as climate-smart farming practices and sustainable water management. This episode offers crucial insights into how Nigeria can build a resilient agricultural system to weather the climate crisis and ensure food security for future generations. Please listen and share widely.
