West and Central Asia experienced decreased precipitation in 2025, contributing to drought and less water flow over the land surface.

Rangelands cover over half of Earth's land and sustain ~2 billion people. Up to half are degraded or at risk.
On #DesertificationAndDroughtDay, IUCN is working with governments and communities to restore rangelands for biodiversity, livelihoods and climate resilience.

In Bundelkhand, a high-intensity rainfall event in 2021 became a turning point. Thanks to strategically placed water-harvesting structures, a significant share of the runoff was captured, resulting in groundwater levels rising by 4–6 meters.
This remarkable transformation from a drought-prone landscape to a region of productive agriculture demonstrates a scalable model for vulnerable communities worldwide.
