Benefit of Governance in Drought Adaptation – Governance Assessment Guide
Bénéfice de la gouvernance pour l’adaptation aux sécheresses – Guide d’évaluation de la gouvernance
Résumé
This guide presents the work of the team of scientists that have been working in the project “Benefit of Governance in Drought Adaptation” (in short: the DROP project), which has received funding from the Interreg IVB programme of the European Union. As a result of climate change, it is expected that extreme events influencing water management (flooding or drought) will increase. Early adaptation to this trend of increasing climatic extremes is therefore required. Governance plays a crucial role in the adaptation process particularly in restricting or facilitating the implementation of adaptation measures. In-depth knowledge about the governance setting of a given region and how to influence governance processes is therefore essential in realizing effective adaptation.
