Integrated Drought Management (IDM)

Integrated Drought Management (IDM) is a holistic approach to dealing with drought. It combines strategies for planning, preparedness, and response across different sectors, such as agriculture, water supply, and environmental conservation. The goal of IDM is to minimize the negative impacts of drought on communities and ecosystems. This includes improving water management, promoting sustainable practices, and enhancing resilience through community engagement and collaboration. By integrating efforts across various disciplines and stakeholders, IDM aims to create comprehensive solutions that address both the immediate effects of drought and long-term sustainability.
