Drought Policy Frameworks

Drought policy frameworks are strategies developed by governments and organizations to manage the impacts of droughts, which are prolonged periods of below-average rainfall. These frameworks outline how to prepare for, respond to, and recover from drought conditions. They typically include measures such as water conservation, agricultural support, monitoring weather patterns, and public awareness campaigns. The goal is to minimize the negative effects of drought on communities, economies, and the environment, ensuring that resources are managed efficiently and that those affected receive assistance and support.
