There is mounting anecdotal evidence that springs across the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) are drying up, causing unprecedented water stress on communities. As part of the Brahmaputra Special Project, the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) and the Advanced Centre for Water Resources Development and Management (ACWADAM), along with the Watershed Management Division (WMD) under Bhutan’s Ministry of Agriculture and Forests, have conducted detailed practical trainings for field technicians and implementers on spring revival and plan to pilot spring revival sites in Bhutan. The project is funded by the Australian government’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).
