To support WASH sector planning, coordination, and advocacy in response to increasing drought risks in Lebanon.
The Composite Drought Vulnerability Index (DVI) identifies areas that are more vulnerable to drought impacts based on their exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. It was developed to support WASH sector planning, coordination, and advocacy in response to increasing drought risks in Lebanon. The methodology relies heavily on Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing technologies to derive, classify, and integrate spatial datasets from various sources. The DVI

The methodology integrates climatic, hydrological, geological, land-use, and demographic factors using a spatial multi-criteria analysis (SMCA) framework.
