The workshop brought together key stakeholders, policy makers, practitioners, and academicians, including government officials from almost all states of the IHR to share information about the initiative, exchange learning, and explore opportunities for collaboration in implementing springshed management in the region. The Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC), Department of Land Resources of the Ministry of Rural Development, NITI Aayog, and several academic institutions, international organizations and civil society organizations participated in the workshop.
The workshop focused on identifying issues and challenges for springshed management scalability, capacity building, decision support systems and identifying the needs and opportunities for planning and implementing springshed management. Participants also discussed the training needs of the different themes of the six-step protocol for spring revival and springshed management. We have worked with partners to develop a methodology-based, customized six step protocol for spring revival. It combines research and community knowledge and includes participatory approaches and advanced scientific techniques for spring revival and springshed management. This protocol is being implemented under the initiative at pilot locations in Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim, and Manipur.
