Introducing a new Integrated Drought Management online course: Monitoring and Early Warning Did you know that droughts have deep, widespread, and often underestimated impacts on societies, ecosystems, and economies? While drought is a recurring and natural climatic phenomenon, climate change is increasing temperatures and evaporation as well as disrupting rainfall patterns, increasing the frequency, severity and duration of droughts in many regions. The Integrated Drought Management Programme in cooperation with Cap-Net, UNEP-DHI, World Meteorological Organisation, Global Water Partnership and Volta Flood and Drought Management project are delighted to launch “Integrated Drought Management: Monitoring and Early Warning” online and free course in English and French.
