  "textContent": "We conceptualised the \"Climate Resource Center\" as borne from a design research project to document and share local agrarian knowledge. As part of a team, I interviewed farmers, seed distributors, and agrarian scientists talking about \n1. knowledge-encoded mythic narratives, \n2. seasonal heuristics, and \n3. care practices that farming communities \nuse to relate to their environments- knowledge systems that often go unrecorded by formal climate research.\n\nThe project sits at the intersection of place-based research and climate practice, asking how communities already know and respond to ecological change as well as set up observatories and political actions for agrarian-centred ecological knowledge. \nKey Project Actions\n1. Observatory: Mapping seasonal water availability, water levels, and monitoring \n2. Community led maintenance: Organizing collective maintenance activities\n3. Restoration: Reviving and mentioning all the techniques\n4. Advocacy: Water conservation and its linkage with health, migration, changing crops, etc.",
