Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change: A SOURCEBOOK FOR THE CARIBBEAN WATER SECTOR

The document describes the 'Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change: A Sourcebook for the Caribbean Water Sector', which supports the implementation of the Regional Framework for Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change and Implementation Plan. It is intended for water resources managers, utilities, and sector agencies to help them manage current climate risks and adapt to future changes through a four-phase decision-making cycle.

• The Sourcebook is designed to assist water sector planners and decision makers in increasing the resilience of water services and resources management by providing a framework for the decision-making cycle divided into four key phases.
• Water security is identified as a critical component for the overall resilience of the Caribbean, supporting its environment, societies, and economies, though it is threatened by climate hazards and new risks associated with climate change.
• The target users of the Sourcebook include national water resources agencies, utilities, regional agencies, water professionals, central planning agencies, and agencies in water-dependent sectors such as tourism and agriculture.
• The Sourcebook is intended as a flexible reference source rather than a linear process, encouraging users to apply tools and methods independently to develop solutions specific to their own national contexts.
