MORE
THAN
AN NGO.
A global rainwater movement.
For over twenty years, IRHA has supported climate-affected regions through community-driven rainwater harvesting, restoring ecosystems and strengthening resilience.
We work through a wide-reaching network of trusted local and regional partners, combining scientific insight, environmental data, field experience and traditional knowledge. This collaborative approach is key to project success, local ownership, and lasting results.
RAIN FOR CHANGE !
Powered by Rain. Rooted in Soil. Driven by Solidarity.
Who We Are
IRHA is a Geneva-based NGO and global alliance of practitioners, scientists, and communities working across continents to protect rain, restore land, and build long-term climate resilience, one watershed at a time.
Our work goes beyond infrastructure: we design landscapes, regenerate degraded soils, support agroecological transitions, and connect water access to equity and sustainability.
What Guides Us.
What We’re Here For
To transform the way rain is seen and used, not as risk, but as renewal. Not as a waste to evacuate, but as a free and vital resource to steward wisely.
We believe every drop matters and people everywhere can lead change when given the right tools.
What We Believe
Water, soil, and people are inseparable. Rain, when harvested with care, becomes the foundation for food, dignity, and planetary healing.
पानी पर्दा मात्र बीऊ फुट्छ।
“Only when rain falls, does the seed break open.”
