#SDGAction51180

Description

• Increase Institutional Collective Awareness and resilience around vulnerabilities, current and future risks in the face of drought. • Reduce the gaps in knowledge about drought and about the non-climatic mechanisms that influence greater vulnerability. • Increase certainty and strengthen short- and medium-term information regarding the drought in Panama. • Develop an Early Warning System (SAT) to monitor Drought, • Generate an Interactive Atlas for the constant evaluation of the risk before the Drought, • Develop a Program to Strengthen capacities and resilience in the face of drought

Expected Impact

This new and additional action will accelerate the implementation of the SDGs, since it will help to organize a solid capacity for foresight, strategic design and better public policies, It will also underpin the concept of Land Degradation Neutrality for the implementation of the UNCCD.
