The Riyadh Global Drought Resilience Partnership, a major international initiative launched at @COP16RIYADH aims to transform how the world responds to drought.
At a milestone meeting in Cologne, Germany, partners officially operationalized the partnership by endorsing its foundational document and a two-year work programme. The initiative will now begin its work to support 20 countries in building robust resilience against the impacts of drought.
As key partners have stated, the focus is on tangible results and "bringing funding to the ground." This marks a critical shift from emergency response to proactive preparation and investment in a resilient future.
