Bhutan's Rainwater Harvesting Policy

Bhutan's Rainwater Harvesting Policy promotes the collection and use of rainwater to address water scarcity and enhance water security. The policy encourages households, communities, and institutions to install systems that capture rainwater from rooftops and other surfaces. This initiative helps reduce dependency on groundwater and contributes to sustainable water management. It supports environmental conservation, reduces flooding risks, and ensures a reliable water supply, especially in rural areas. By implementing this policy, Bhutan aims to improve resilience against climate change and promote community self-sufficiency in water resources.
