Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) tools and training modules developed and tailored for Caribbean stakeholders. These resources are geared toward building climate resilience in the Caribbean water sector.
The Caribbean Water and Climate Knowledge Platform is a hub for various knowledge products on Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) and building climate resilience in the Caribbean water sector.
Investments for water security and climate resilient development can benefit from combining different funding sources. Matching climate finance with traditional water finance from Official Development Assistance (ODA) and private sector is a good strategy. Stay tuned for guidance and information on funding sources and best practices and guidelines for accessing funding.
Building water security and climate resilience into development activities is key to achieving long-term sustainability, but requires much higher levels of investment than at present.
The Global Water Partnership–Caribbean (GWP-C) Water Climate and Development Programme (WACDEP) is aimed at building climate resilience in the water sector as a key part of sustainable regional and national development for economic growth and human security.
The Country Water Partnerships invited to take part in the inaugural session of the Steering Committee meeting of GWP met with the Regional Secretariat and the Network Officers in the afternoon of November 25. This was an opportunity to review the latest version of the GWP 2014-2019 Strategy and GWP West Africa 2014-2016 Work Programme as well as initiatives and opportunities that may be of some interest to CWPs.
