Importance of Aviation in The Bahamas . Challenges of Pavement Maintenance . The Treasure In Treasure Cay . The Commonwealth of the Bahamas is an island nation located in the Atlantic Ocean. It has 700 islands and cays in the Atlantic Ocean stretching over 13,940 km². Approximately only 40 of the 700 islands are inhabited. The 2 majors cities in The Bahamas are: Nassau, which is in New Providence and the capital city and Freeport, which is in Grand Bahama. On July 10th 1973 The Bahamas gained Independence from Great Britain. The Bahamas has an approximate population 380,000 people. 65% of the population live on the island of New Providence (Nassau). The remaining Bahamian islands are referred to as the “Family Islands”. The Bahamas is located in the Hurricane belt. Our tropical cyclone season extends from June 1st to November 30th. The weather is subtropical climate. A total of 56 Aerodromes in The Bahamas . 28 Government operated . 28 Privately operated . Principle Aerodromes –Typical Aircraft: Code C • Lynden Pindling International (Nassau, Bahamas) • Grand Bahama International (Freeport, Bahamas) . Family Island Aerodromes –Typical Aircraft: Dash-8 • Busiest Family Island aerodrome is Marsh Harbor International (Abaco, Bahamas) . Tourism relations account for 60% of the country’s GDP. Over 65% of our visitors arrive by air. Medical emergencies on the Family Islands typically require air transport to New Providence, Freeport and neighbouring nations. Air Transport is the most efficient means of transport for medical emergencies throughout Family Island. -

We would like to extend our gratitude to our partners and contacts in-country who were able to provide valuable contextual information on displacement: Yasmine Colijn, Lorenzo Guadagno and Nicolas Vexlir of IOM, the South Bahamas Conference of Seventh-Day Adventists, Latazia Stuart, Betty Cadet, and Alexandria Joseph. Author: John Marazita, Doctoral Student, University of Geneva, Department of Geography and Environment Editor: Steven Ambrus Design and layout: Rachel Natali Cover photo: A home along the Grand Bahama Highway was hit by both the king tide and Hurricane Dorian. The inhabitants stayed in the home during the hurricane. As the water level rose, they moved to the attic although they were safe from the waters by only a few feet. After the storm, they then sought refuge with nearby relatives that were less impacted.

Migration, Freedom and Enslavement in the Revolutionary Atlantic: the Bahamas, 1783–C
Migration, Freedom and Enslavement in the Revolutionary Atlantic: The Bahamas, 1783–c. 1800 Paul Daniel Shirley October 2011 UCL PhD thesis 1 I, Paul Daniel Shirley, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: _____________________________ (Paul Daniel Shirley) 2 Abstract This thesis examines the impact of revolution upon slavery in the Atlantic world, focusing upon the period of profound and unprecedented change and conflict in the Bahamas during the final decades of the eighteenth century. It argues that the Bahamian experience can only be satisfactorily understood with reference to the revolutionary upheavals that were transforming the larger Atlantic world in those years. From 1783, the arrival of black and white migrants displaced by the American Revolution resulted in quantitative and qualitative social, economic and political transformation in the Bahamas. The thesis assesses the nature and significance of the sudden demographic shift to a non-white majority in the archipelago, the development of many hitherto unsettled islands, and efforts to construct a cotton-based plantation economy. It also traces the trajectory and dynamics of the complex struggles that ensued from these changes. During the 1780s, émigré Loyalist slaveholders from the American South, intent on establishing a Bahamian plantocracy, confronted not only non-white Bahamians exploring enlarged possibilities for greater control over their own lives, but also an existing white population determined to defend their own interests, and a belligerent governor with a penchant for idiosyncratic antislavery initiatives. In the 1790s, a potentially explosive situation was inflamed still further as a new wave of war and revolution engulfed the Atlantic. -

PRESERVATION and the FUTURE of the BAHAMIAN PAST: a CASE STUDY of SAN SALVADOR ISLAND's HISTORIC RESOURCES by CHRISTOPHER C. J
PRESERVATION AND THE FUTURE OF THE BAHAMIAN PAST: A CASE STUDY OF SAN SALVADOR ISLAND’S HISTORIC RESOURCES by CHRISTOPHER C. JACKSON (Under the Direction of Cari Goetcheus) ABSTRACT While the material remains of past human activity and the evolution of traditional cultural activities have been the focus of much scholarship regarding the history of The Bahamas, very little has been said regarding preservation, promotion and interpretation of such resources. Experiencing spaces, places and activities associated with specific strands of history offer the Bahamian observer unique opportunities to gain insights into their own culture and character. This thesis explores the wealth of cultural heritage resources on San Salvador Island in order to analyze how such resources could be managed to affectively reveal the breadth of The Bahamas’ unique history and culture.
