The Drought Ready network is a community group hosted on Facebook. It brings together individuals who are passionate about helping their communities become more prepared for drought. It serves as a platform for knowledge exchange, learning from others’ experiences, and collaborating to build resilience.
The idea was born out of the first phase of Drought Resilience Leadership Development Program, Drought Resilience Leaders Mentoring Program we delivered and the Networks for Drought Resilience Grants FRRR delivered. Seeing the impact of the collaboration and networks from these programs, we saw the potential in providing a platform where everyone can share their knowledge and experience. If learning what’s worked and what hasn’t worked in another community sounds good to you, then the Drought Ready network is for you.
As a member of the Drought Ready network, you can expect to connect with like-minded individuals, gain access to valuable resources, and engage in meaningful discussions. You’ll have the opportunity to learn from others, share your own experiences, and collaborate on initiatives that contribute to building resilience in the face of drought.
The frequency of updates and discussions may vary, but we strive to maintain an active and engaging community. New content, resources, and discussions are shared regularly to keep members informed and inspired.
You can reach out to the administrators of the Drought Ready network by sending a message through our Facebook group chat. We are here to support you, answer any questions you may have, and ensure you have a meaningful experience within the community.
Remember, the Drought Ready network is a place where we come together to make a difference and ensure our communities are prepared for the challenges of drought. Join us today and let’s build resilience together!
