DESCRIPTION:Everjoy Grace Chiimba (Univeristy of Bonn)\n\n'The aftermath of
  Cyclone Idai (2019): Youth narratives beyond official and online discours
 es in Zimbabwe.'\n	\n	In the aftermath of Cyclone Idai (2019)\, disaster res
 ponse in Chimanimani\, Zimbabwe was characterized by limited information\,
  politicization and exclusionary aid practices. In addition\, much of the 
 discussion about the disaster on X (formerly Twitter) was driven by distan
 t observers. In response to being excluded and spoken for\, young people i
 n the community turned to grassroots participatory storytelling through th
 eatre and visual art to voice grievances and reimagine recovery narratives
 . At the first anniversary of Cyclone Idai\, a community-led theatre perfo
 rmance exposed issues such as the politicization and sexualization of aid\
 , nepotism\, and local exclusion. These artistic interventions provided a 
 means of reclaiming narrative space and highlighted local perspectives. Th
 is analysis\, demonstrates an alternative approach through which young peo
 ple contribute to post-disaster communication and recovery\, highlighting 
 local perspectives that are frequently absent from official and digital ac
 counts of disasters.\n	\n	Light refreshments served.\n
