TWO-DAY WORKSHOP ON STRENGTHENING LOCAL SELF GOVERNANCE & ACCELERATING RURAL DEVELOPMENT
DEPARTMENT OF LAND RESOURCES

2. Area Development Programmes
DoLR has been implementing three programmes on watershed basis since
Drought Prone Areas Programme
Desert Development Programme
Integrated Wastelands Development Programme
These programmes have been integrated into a single modified programme called Integrated Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) w.e.f This consolidation is for optimum use of resources, sustainable outcomes and integrated planning.

3. OBJECTIVES OF IWMP
Harnessing, conserving and developing degraded natural resources such as soil, vegetative cover & water
Restoring the ecological balance
Prevention of soil run-off
Regeneration of natural vegetation
Rain water harvesting & recharging of ground water table
Introduction of multi-cropping & diverse agro-based activities
Promoting sustainable livelihoods

4. SALIENT FEATURES OF IWMP
Cluster Approach: Average size of project -1,000 to 5,000 ha
Scientific Planning: Use of GIS based data at State and District levels. Use of Remote Sensing inputs in detailed project planning and preparation of DPRs.
Institutional Framework: Dedicated institutional structures with multi-disciplinary experts at the National, State, District & Project levels.
Capacity Building: All stakeholders involved in dev. of watershed projects.
Livelihood Orientation: 10% project funds for livelihoods for assetless people and13% for farm production & micro-enterprises.
Monitoring & Evaluation: 2 % of the project funds earmarked. Mandatory evaluation after completion of every phase i.e. Preparatory, Works and Consolidation.

5. ROLE OF PRIs
DPC approves perspective & annual action plans of watershed projects. It integrates these plans with over all District plans and also oversees its implementation.
Similarly, Intermediate Panchayats have important role in planning watershed projects. They can also act as PIAs.
Gram Sabha constitutes WC which implements project with the technical support of WDT.
GP supervises, supports & advises WC, authenticates its accounts, facilitates convergence with other schemes.
GP allocates usufruct rights to UGs/SHGs over assets created.

6. ACTIVITIES UNDER IWMP Soil & moisture conservation measures
Water harvesting measures
Planting of multi-purpose trees & shrubs and pasture land dev.
Promotion of agro-forestry and horticulture
Training, extension and awareness generation
Encouraging peoples’ participation
Livelihood activities for assetless people
Production system and micro-enterprise
