The increasingly frequent and severe droughts prompted the global community to adopt more proactive and integrated approaches to reduce or neutralize the impacts. The paradigm shift called for an improved planning mechanism that puts emphasis on strengthening preparedness. In support of this process, the Drought Initiative, called by the Conference of Parties (COP) of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), rolled out its programme on drought planning at national level. Showing the strong interest, 70 countries have already joined the programme to prepare their national drought plan. The development of a multi-criteria assessment for the review of the plans is a necessary step to enable the implementation. This publication contributes to this overall goal from multiple objectives, including the presentation of a replicable framework to conduct regular reviews, the analysis of the submitted plans to identify the potential for further enhancements, the provision of recommendations on the options of enhancements, and the demonstration of case studies with successful planning methods to facilitate the global knowledge-sharing.

Integrated water supply planning, asset management planning and drought management planning are fundamental to the prudent and efficient delivery of water supply services to any community. Drought management planning is a key consideration by the Department of Regional Development, Manufacturing and Water for regulatory activities conducted under Part 5A, Division 3 of the Water Supply (Safety and Reliability) Act 2008 in relation to water security and continuity of supply....The aim of a drought management plan (DMP) is to identify and mitigate community water shortage risks associated with drought. A DMP should provide a clear description of what actions need to occur and when, who isresponsible for implementation, and how necessary resources will be secured. It should address the need to manage demand, identify and access new water supplies, and maintain and enhance the capability of assets. This guideline has been prepared to assist water service providers to develop a DMP for each urban water supply service they operate, as part of their responsibility for managing risks to urban water security and continuity of supply. It also aims to help water service providers review and assess an existing DMP or restrictions schedule, promote consistency in terminology for water restrictions across the state, and provide various levels of detail to support water service providers at different stages of planning maturity. (Purpose, page 3).

Droughts and their management are a serious challenge to water resource professionals. While droughts predominate in arid regions, their frequency and severity in more temperate regions with more abundant rainfall have been on the rise. Drought Management and Planning for Water Resources provides an essential collection of planning and manag
