El Niño Offers Lessons For Climate Change Peruvian school children have been helping researchers record how rural communities have traditionally coped with the extreme weather brought by the El Niño weather system, in an international project led by the University of St Andrews. The project, which has just received a major grant of £150,000 from the Arts and Humanities Research Council’s Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) aims to explore how people have exploited the opportunities presented by these extreme weather events with potential insights for how the rest of the world responds to climate change. Led by Dr Nina Laurie of the School of Geography and Sustainable Development and Dr Karen Brown of the School of Art History at the University of St Andrews, with their partner organisation the Peruvian NGO PRISMA, which aims to improve the lives of vulnerable groups in society, the project follows a successful pilot in June 2019.
