Sajag-Nepal's "Notes from the Field" is a three-episode podcast for "Disasters: Deconstructed" This special episode will introduce listeners to the work and scope of the "Sajag-Nepal: Planning and Preparedness for the Mountain Hazard and Risk Chain in Nepal" project. Most importantly it will explore Sajag-Nepal project’s approaches to interdisciplinary and intercultural research on multi-hazards and risk chains in Nepal.

In our final episode (of 3) we will focus on Slope Monitoring Equipment, which aims to study slope movement. Additionally, we will engage in discussions with community members from Bhotekoshi to better understand their perspectives on slope movement. The goal of this episode is to facilitate a dialogue between scientific knowledge and community insights regarding slope movement.

We hope you enjoy the discussion!

Translation of the Nepal folk song

The landslide occurs every year.

What is the government doing?

We are worried- where to go,

What to eat, what to wear.

Landslides bring sorrow.

While the government watches,

landslides have increased.

We are worried- where to go,

What to eat, what to wear.
