Dryland Development Programme

The Dryland Development Programme is an initiative aimed at improving the lives of people living in arid and semi-arid regions where water is scarce. It focuses on sustainable agriculture, water conservation, and ecological preservation to boost local productivity and resilience. By promoting better land management practices, crop diversification, and efficient water use, the programme helps communities adapt to climate variability, reduce poverty, and promote environmental sustainability in dryland areas. Its overall goal is to create a balanced approach that benefits both people and the land they depend on.
