About Drought Handbook: Outputs & Impacts

As the UK’s £12m Drought and Water Scarcity (DWS) research programme reaches its conclusion with a final event at The Royal Society in London, this handbook draws together the key outputs and outcomes. The book also features a series of interviews with our leading stakeholders, which highlight how successfully we have met our objectives to produce cutting-edge science that has made a demonstrable impact on how decision-makers manage water scarcity in the UK.

The UK <strong>Drought</strong>s & Water Scarcity research<br />

programme is a five-year interdisciplinary, £12 million<br />

UKRI programme in collaboration with NERC, ESRC,<br />

EPSRC, BBSRC and AHRC. It is supporting improved<br />

decision-making in relation to droughts and water<br />

scarcity by providing research that identifies, predicts<br />

and responds to the interrelationships between their<br />

multiple drivers and impacts.<br />

The programme’s research is UK-focused, and<br />

contributes to NERC’s natural hazards and climate<br />

system strategic science themes.<br />

Over 200 institutions and organisations were involved<br />

in the programme.
