Responding to Drought

Water is central to food security, poverty reduction, economic growth, energy production, and human health. Due to climate change, catastrophic events, such as droughts and floods will increase, impacting lives, livelihoods, land values, and investment incentives. This briefing note focusses on programmes for Climate Resilience, and on integrated drought management in particular. Briefing notes are two-page summaries on selected topics. They are prepared by GWP’s Global Secretariat and its partners.
