Gram Bharati Samiti (GBS) stands for Society for Rural Development. It was founded in April 1984 by social activists and professionals, with the overall mission of “establishing a society based on humanitarian and democratic values and an ecologically balanced habitat”.
This workshop is being organised to provide a framework for reflection and consultation, with a view to strengthening the role of local authorities and civil society in anticipating and managing drought crises on a sustainable basis.
During this one-day workshop, experts on the issue of water resource management in India will first of all provide contextualising and framing elements. Group work will then enable Indian civil society organisations to make a collective contribution to the Désertif’actions 2026 debate.
