Subject Watershed management
 
Description Community watersheds are growth engines for the
development of dryland areas. Since the beginning
of watershed programs, the approach is constantly
evolving in India. Today watershed projects do not focus
on water conservation solely; integrated watershed
management plays an important role in ensuring food
security, reducing poverty, protecting the environment
and addressing issues such as equity and improved
livelihoods.
