Saint Lucia is a Small Island Developing State (SIDS) which faces many development challenges that include limited geographic space; an open, vulnerable economy; fragile ecosystems; limited human and institutional capacity; and vulnerability to natural phenomena, such as extreme weather, epidemics and pandemics. The onset of climate change has increased the frequency with which hydrometeorological climatic events occur with two extreme events (Hurricane Tomas, October 2010, and the Christmas Eve Trough, December 2013) striking the island within the last ten years and has also increased certain health threats. Saint Lucia developed a Strategic Programme for Climate Resilience (SPCR), funded by the Pilot Programme for Climate Resilience (PPCR), which is currently being implemented. Saint Lucia’s strategic programme areas are closely interwoven with the broader fabric of disaster risk reduction (DRR). Thus, co-financing under the PPCR is being achieved through a synergistic blend, with financial resources made available under the national and regional components of the Disaster Vulnerability Reduction Project (DVRP) which allows for up-scaling SPCR implementation activities. Two major outcomes expected from Saint Lucia’s DVRP include: 1) capacity built to identify and monitor climate risk at the national level; and, 2) reduced vulnerability of key sectors, assets and people to natural disasters 1 . The Department of Economic Development, Transport and Civil Aviation is responsible for the implementation of the DVRP while the Department of Sustainable Development and the Department of Infrastructure, Ports and Energy (DIPE) provide technical support towards implementation of the Project. The Project Coordination Unit (PCU) is responsible for the fiduciary aspects of the Project.
