Title Improving resilience of the education system to climate change impacts in the Eastern Caribbean region for Saint Lucia and Antigua and Barbuda

Context

Saint Lucia is a Small Island Development State (SIDS), which is highly at risk from climate change, mainly due to its location along the North Atlantic hurricane corridor, its small surface area, geographic location and its economic reliance on tourism and agriculture, which are climate-sensitive factors. The country’s limited capacity to reconstruct and reactivate its economy after climate-related shocks renders it highly vulnerable. Because of its small geographic size and dependence on natural resources any extreme weather event can have national implications.

Currently, 87 out of Saint Lucia’s 103 public schools are designated as emergency shelters along with very few churches and human resource centers. The shelters are deemed insufficient in terms of structural conditions as well as in total capacity.
