Unite Caribbean, in consortium with the consulting firm OIKOLOGICAis commissioned by the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre under a Green Climate Fund project to develop the Implementation plan, Climate Finance Strategy and Monitoring and Evaluation framework accompanying CARICOM’s climate change resilience strategy.

CARICOM has recently updated its regional climate resilience framework, and this mission is an extension of that strategy update.

Specifically, Unite Caribbean and OIKO will:

– Identify and consult with key stakeholders who will be engaged in the implementation of the regional strategy.

– Develop an Implementation Plan with concrete action proposals, a Climate Financing Strategy to carry out the plan, and a Monitoring and Evaluation framework to ensure that the objectives are met.

– Make recommendations to reform the Regional Consultative Committee, a fundamental element in the implementation of the strategy.

– Organise a regional dialogue to validate deliverables and ensure buy-in and support from major stakeholders.

This ambitious mission relies on the engagement of actors at ministerial level, but also on consultation with CARICOM regional organisations, development aid organisations and donors, as well as key stakeholders from civil society and the private sector.

14 CARICOM countries are involved in this contract: Belize, Bahamas, Jamaica, Haiti, Antigua & Barbuda, Monserrat, Dominica, St. Lucia, Barbados, St. Vincent & the Grenadines, Grenada, Trinidad & Tobago, Guyana, and Suriname.
