- Rationalizing use of resources in catchment and river basins
- Remediating fluvial environments
- Restoring water catchments
Description
Managing degraded river basins involves coordinated actions to restore water quality, rehabilitate ecosystems, and ensure sustainable use of resources. Essential strategies include controlling pollution sources, reforesting riparian zones, implementing soil conservation, and regulating water extraction. These measures aim to reverse habitat loss, reduce sedimentation, and improve water flow, thereby supporting biodiversity, safeguarding livelihoods, and enhancing resilience to floods and droughts within affected river basin communities.
