dc.description.abstractThe Drought Risk and Resilience Assessment (DRRA) offers a structured methodology for evaluating drought risk and enhancing resilience. The objective is to transition from reactive to proactive drought management, reducing the impacts of droughts. When applied, a DRRA can support task teams and sector specialists in collaborative programming for drought resilience, emphasizing the importance of interdisciplinary and intersectoral approaches. The DRRA begins with assessing the context, including institutional capacity, stakeholder engagement, and coordination across governments. It then evaluates overall drought risk by analyzing past and future drought hazards, impacts, and vulnerabilities, followed by a gap analysis of current response and preparedness measures. The final step involves identifying and prioritizing investments to mitigate drought risk and enhance resilience. The DRRA is adaptable to different country contexts, leveraging existing data and resources while addressing specific needs and priorities. It integrates established methodologies and tools, filling gaps and guiding implementers to appropriate resources.en
