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

This information brief describes the 'Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change: A Sourcebook for the Caribbean Water Sector', a resource designed to help planners and decision makers enhance water security and climate resilience in the Caribbean region.

• The Caribbean Water Sector Sourcebook was created to assist in the implementation of the Regional Framework for Achieving Development Resilient to Climate Change and Implementation Plan, positioning the water sector as central to achieving climate resilient development.
• The Sourcebook provides a framework for improving climate resilience across a decision-making cycle consisting of four key phases, offering specific tools, methods, and approaches for each phase.
• The document identifies that climate hazards threaten water security, and that climate change has the potential to exacerbate these hazards and introduce new risks to the Caribbean region.
• The target audience for the Sourcebook includes a variety of stakeholders, such as national water resources agencies and utilities, regional agencies, water professionals, central planning agencies, and agencies for water-dependent sectors like tourism and agriculture.
• The Sourcebook is intended as a reference source rather than a linear process; its sections can be used independently to help users develop climate resilient solutions tailored to their specific national contexts.
