Organized by the Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD), the Second IGAD Drought Disaster Resilience and Sustainability Initiative (IDDRSI) General Assembly and Ministerial Meeting took place in Kampala, Uganda, and was focused on “investing differently” to end drought emergencies.

Initiated after the humanitarian crisis triggered by the 2008-2011 droughts, IDDRSI has spurred significant progress both at regional and national levels in the following IGAD member States: Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia, South Sudan, Sudan and Uganda. Country programming papers have been developed and institutional structures are being put in place.
