Advancing Caribbean Climate Adaptation through Natural Solutions

The impacts of climate change are increasingly severe and the need for action is more urgent than ever. Caribbean islands are among the world’s most vulnerable, with storm frequency and intensity, flooding, wind damage and sea level rise all predicted to worsen, increasing threats to hospitals, power plants, freshwater sources, roads, houses and schools. Island communities must work together to prepare for disasters caused by natural phenomenon and minimize the impacts they will endure. Evidence shows that key ecosystems, like coral reefs and mangroves, can help reduce these risks while

Climate Risk Adaptation and Insurance in the Caribbean (Phase II)
The overall aim of the project is to upscale, refine and integrate climate risk insurance (CRI) solutions (launched in phase I) within a broader framework of disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies and facilitate public safety nets and public-private insurance solutions for vulnerable people.
