Stories of hope, hardship and most importantly, resilience, will soon have the chance to be featured in a new book called ‘My Drought Story’ that will be celebrating the courage and strength of drought-affected communities in the aftermath of one of the worst droughts in history.
The book is set to be launched in September by the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) as a key project for their Drought Resilience Leaders Development Program.
The My Drought Story project will use submissions from people who’ve lived through drought to highlight resilience in the face of adversity, and share practical methods for coping with disasters in regional areas.
