BELMOPAN, Belize, CMC – The Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre (CCCCC) and the German Financial Cooperation (KfW) have signed a programme geared towards reducing the risks of climate change on the Caribbean’s coastal population.
The approximately six year Ecosystem-Based Approaches for Climate Change Adaptation in Coastal Zones of Small Island Developing States in the Caribbean (EBACC) programme, which is slated to start later this year, will be implemented in St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada and Jamaica.
The main components of the programme are investments in sustainable improvements of coastal ecosystems relevant for climate change adaptation, and knowledge management, project support and monitoring.
