Solutions that Inspire Change: Building Drought Resilience Together

The United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) and the Global Water Partnership (GWP) have joined forces to launch a photo competition that highlights the global challenge of water scarcity and its impacts on land degradation. 

The UNCCD, dedicated to combating desertification and mitigating the effects of drought, and GWP, a multi-stakeholder network championing integrated water resources management, have united to showcase creative and practical solutions to these pressing challenges. This competition aims to inspire hope and action, drawing attention to innovative ways communities and ecosystems can become more resilient to drought.
