    Drought has direct or indirect impacts on all aspects of society, the environment and the economy. This multifaceted nature has implications for managing drought events, particularly in coordinating mitigation efforts. Institutional coordination and communication are vital for drought management as they enable effective collaboration among government agencies, stakeholders and communities. Coordinated efforts facilitate the sharing of information, expertise and resources, leading to more robust risk assessments and drought management plans, improved community engagement, more timely response, and better preparedness for drought events. The report is prepared by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the Global Water Partnership (GWP), and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) under the framework of the project “Enabling Activities for Implementing UNCCD COP Drought Decisions” funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and implemented in collaboration with the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) and other partners.
