Need for a High Level Meeting on National

Drought Policy (HMNDP)

Despite the repeated

occurrences of droughts and the

large impacts on different socio-

economic sectors, no concerted

efforts have ever been made to

initiate a dialogue on the

formulation and adoption of

national drought policies.

World’s costliest

natural disaster,

incurring annually

US $6-8 billion

losses.

WMO/GWP IDMP Approach

1. From reactive to proactive measures through

drought mitigation, vulnerability reduction and

preparedness;

2. To integrate the vertical planning and decision

making processes at regional, national and

community levels into a multi-stakeholder

approach including key sectors, especially

agriculture and energy;

3. To promote the evolution of the drought

knowledge base and to establish a mechanism for

sharing knowledge and providing services to

stakeholders across sectors at all levels;

4. To build capacity of various stakeholders at

different levels.

Engaging Partners

• High interest at the global level IDMP

Advisory Committee attended by 15

organizations

• Interested Organizations can develop

Expression of Interest Letter between

WMO, GWP to define areas of cooperation

on IDM.

• On development of IDMP Help Desk, IDMP

will engage Support Based Partners (SBP)

• SBPs will Focus on technical area of

mutual interest

Outcomes WMO/GWP IDMP

The IDMP aims to add value and close the gaps with regard to:

•Better scientific understanding of, and inputs for, drought

management;

•Improved knowledge base, with better access to information and

products;

•Capacity for drought risk assessment, monitoring, prediction

and early warning;

•Improved policy and planning for drought preparedness and

mitigation across sectors; and

•Drought risk reduction and response.

Guidelines for National Drought Management

Policies and Preparedness Plans

• Prepared by Donald A. Wilhite, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, U.S.A.

Step 1: Appoint a national drought management policy commission

Step 2: State or define the goals and objectives of a risk-based national drought management policy

Step 3: Seek stakeholder participation; define and resolve conflicts between key water use sectors

Step 4: Inventory data and financial resources available and identify groups at risk

Step 5: Prepare/write the key tenets of a national drought management policy and preparedness

plans, which would include the following elements:Monitoring, early warning and prediction, Risk

and impact assessment, Mitigation and response

Step 6: Identify research needs and fill institutional gaps

Step 7: Integrate science and policy aspects of drought management

Step 8: Publicize the national drought management policy and preparedness plans and build public

awareness

Step 9: Develop educational programs for all age and stakeholder groups

Step 10: Evaluate and revise national drought management policy and supporting preparedness

plans
