Water and drought mitigation

In a region that receives only 400–500 mm of rain a year, every drop saved changes what a village can grow and how long a family can stay home.

Holding water in a dry land

Natural resource management has been at the heart of Astitva since the beginning. We work with villages to conserve water and soil, restore green cover and prepare for drought before it arrives.

Our work includes building check dams and water-harvesting structures, soil conservation, afforestation, and safe drinking water for schools and villages.
