National case studies

Country-level drought impact and vulnerability assessments provide a wealth of information that significantly enhances resilience in drought-affected areas. Moreover, they inform global knowledge and methodologies and translate national strategies on integrated drought management into effective action plans based on on-ground conditions.

For this reason, this compendium includes a series of relevant country reports to showcase national impact and vulnerability assessments and highlight drought vulnerability along social, economic, infrastructural, environmental and institutional dimensions.

National reports on impact and vulnerability assessment are developed for the following countries.
