Resource summary
Groundwater is a resource to be protected due to its high but fragile resilience to climate change, as it responds much more slowly to meteorological conditions than surface water and, as such, provides a natural buffer against climate variability, including drought [a]. On the institutional side, GRAPHIC initiative [b] highlighted the need for more explicit discussion regarding groundwater since strategic management for climate resilient groundwater resources is the foundation for long-term adaptation and mitigation plans for development and poverty reduction.
