WASHINGTON, CMC – The World Bank has lauded St. Lucia as a “success story” within the Caribbean for its efforts in managing the risk of rainfall-triggered landslides. The Washington-based financial institution said it has helped the St. Lucia government with “crucial information” about the causes of landslides, as well as an insight into the most at-risk areas. Addressing the effects and causes of landslides, the bank said the Management of Slope Stability in Communities, or MoSSaiC, project reduced the risk with a three-pronged approach.
