This seismic risk profile of Montserrat, produced by the Global Earthquake Model (GEM) Foundation summarizes key metrics of seismic risk, allowing stakeholders in risk management to get an overview of the risk in the country.

Six Caribbean islands, Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Sint Maarten, Montserrat and Turks and Caicos Islands, benefit from an 18-month project designed to build the energy resilience of these islands while reducing their vulnerability.

UNICEF's Latin America and Caribbean Regional Office and CDEMA signed a MoU to co-operate on the development of more resilient communities.

Sustainable post-disaster recovery implies learning from past experience in order to prevent recreating forms of vulnerability. Memory construction supports both the healing process and redevelopment plans. Hence, memory of disaster results from the

This article seeks to understand the interactions that contribute to volcanic risk during eruptions. It looks at social outcomes from eruptive activity,framed as impacts on wellbeing and access to livelihood security.

A new study shows how to improve the climate resilience of the fisheries sectors in Anguilla and Montserrat through institutional strengthening.

Volcanic ash is an excellent archetype of an ‘extensive hazard’. Ash fall occurs frequently and intermittently during volcanic eruptions, and populations in close proximity to persistently-active volcanoes report ash impacts and distribution that have

When disasters strike, the fishery sector is among the hardest hit. Anguilla and Montserrat have been making efforts to increase climate change adaptation and invest in disaster risk reduction in the fishery sector, hoping to better protect the communities whose livelihoods depend on it.
