Integrated water and drylands management
Jordan is predominantly covered by drylands, with 80% of the country receiving an annual precipitation of about 100mm or less. Climate change, mismanagement and inherent water scarcity are the main drivers for IWRM projects in Jordan to promote water use efficiency, improve water governance, and minimize water losses.
Building drought resilience in Garissa and Tana River Counties in Kenya
The Building Drought Resilience is implemented in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands of Garissa and Tana River counties in Kenya. The main objective of the project is to improve the resilience of dryland communities within a river catchment against the impacts of increasingly severe and frequent drought, through strengthened ecosystem management and adaptive capacity of local communities.
