Executive Summary
This report is an attempt to summarise progress on St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ Pilot Programme for Climate Resilience (PPCR) based on the core indicators. It accompanies the PPCR scorecard providing where necessary context for scores. In the spirit of the objective the PPCR, effort is made to highlight activities contributing to climate resilience and disaster risk reduction nationally, in a section so named. The process for monitoring St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ PPCR is outlined complete with the data collection methods used in 2016. Scores on the degree of integration of climate resilience into planning, and evidence of government capacity to mainstream climate resilience are analysed nationally and by sector (Indicators 1 and 2) and an overview of the progress of project activities provided (Indicator 3). The report posits that while PPCR 2016 indicator scores do not show significant quantitative improvement over those in 2015, substantial qualitative changes have occurred. For example, all sectors now either have sector plans or have a clear path toward the development of such plan that will include specific climate resilience measures. Full achievement of indicator one by project end or shortly thereafter is conceivable. Scores for indicator two (capacity to mainstream climate resilience) have increased by only small amounts despite the increase in the number of assessments generated by the project and training undertaken during implementation. Discussions at the 2015 and 2016 workshops revealed a reluctance on the part of scores to rate these components (information and expertise) as being adequate. Recommendations have since been made for more specific criteria to be used on this sub-component. This is addressed in the section on scoring criteria.

SPCR Background
The Pilot Programme for Climate Resilience (PPCR) is a $1.2 billion funding window of the Climate Investment Funds (CIF). The programme assists developing countries in integrating climate resilience into development planning and offers additional funding to pilot innovative public and private sector solutions to pressing climate-related risks. The PPCR focuses on a small number of countries and transactions to maximize impact and possibility for replication. There are nine (9) pilot countries (Bangladesh, Cambodia, Nepal, Tajikistan, Zambia, Bolivia, Republic of Mozambique, Niger and Yemen) and 2 regional programs (Caribbean Region and Pacific) which together comprise nine (9) small island nations.
St. Vincent and the Grenadines’ Strategic Programme for Climate Resilience (SPCR) is being implemented as part of the Regional Disaster Vulnerability Project (RDVRP). The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) Regional Disaster Vulnerability Reduction Project (RDVRP) was declared effective by the World Bank (Bank) on September 9, 2011, and is being implemented over a seven year period that ends on December 31, 2018. It is 100% financed by credits of USD 46.52 million from the International Development Agency (IDA), Strategic Climate Fund Pilot (SCF) Program for Climate Resilience (PPCR) grants of USD 12 million, and an SCF Loan of USD 3 million1.

Climate resilience and disaster risk reduction in St. Vincent and the Grenadines
Outside of the RDVRP, several initiatives address climate resilience and disaster risk reduction in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
OECS/USAID Climate Change (RRACC) Project The RRACC project was launched July 2010 as a joint effort by the OECS Commission and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). Over the life cycle of the project, demonstration projects were developed and implemented in OECS member states. The projects focused on one or more of the following: food security; flood management; coastal management; land management; or freshwater management. Storage tank installed in Paget Farm Bequia In St. Vincent the RRACC Rainwater Harvesting and Disaster Management Project focused on utilizing six (6) public service buildings and designated disaster shelters as sites to demonstrate efficient rainwater harvesting (RWH) and storage systems. The locations were chosen because they were either established disaster shelters or situated in communities vulnerable to disasters. Rain water harvesting systems were installed at Sandy Bay Government School, Georgetown Community Centre, Langley Park Government School, Richland Park Government School, Park Hill Government School and Liberty Lodge Boys Training Centre. In Bequia, under the OECS/USAID Water Redundancy and Distribution Project, storage capacity at the reverse osmosis water treatment plant was increased from 20,000 gallons to 60,000 gallons. Distribution lines to Paget Farm were established allowing the community direct access to the stored Rainwater harvesting system installed at one water. of the sites

OECS/GCCA Project on Climate Change Adaptation and Sustainable Land Management The Climate Change Adaptation and Sustainable Land Management project is an EU-funded initiative to address issues of sustainable land management in the OECS region. The specific objective of the project is to improve the region’s natural resource-base resilience to the impacts of climate change through effective and sustainable land management frameworks and practices and through specific adaptation pilot projects focused on physical infrastructure and ecosystems. In St. Vincent the project provided beach profiling equipment to the National Parks, Beaches and Rivers Authority, soil testing kits to the Soil Conservation Unit of the Ministry of Agriculture, and surveying equipment to the Lands and Surveys Department of the Ministry of Housing improving capacity for local monitoring and data collection. The second phase of the project addresses development of local area plans, review of Environmental Impact Assessment Guidelines, watershed management activities in two locations (Cumberland and Perseverance) and short to medium term GIS training. NPBRA Collection of samples for water quality testing
Coastal Protection for Climate Change Adaptation in the Small Island States in the Caribbean This project is concerned with the implementation of local adaptation measures for the sustainable improvement of coastal ecosystems relevant for climate change adaptation. The project is being implemented in four (4) Caribbean countries by the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre (CCCCC) with financing from German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). There are two main components:
1. Investments for sustainable improvements of coastal ecosystems relevant for climate change adaptation 2. Assistance in the preparation and implementation of Local Adaptation Measures
In St. Vincent the project will finance several interventions including shoreline protection/ coastal defence works in Sand Bay, rehabilitation of beaches at Indian Bay and Villa, restoration of the Ashton lagoon in Union Island and rehabilitation of mangroves in Calliaqua and Ashton Union Island.

Japan-Caribbean Climate Change Partnership Project (J-CCCP) The Japan-Caribbean Climate Change Partnership (J-CCCP) is designed to strengthen the capacity of countries in the Caribbean to invest in climate change mitigation and adaptation technologies. The project is being implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) with financial and technical support from the Government of Japan.
Members of the Project board at In St. Vincent the project will lead to the development of National National Launch Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA) and National Adaptation Plans (NAP) to promote alternative low-emission and climate-resilient technologies. Pilot adaptation projects are also being developed in 4 priority areas namely: water resource management; sustainable agriculture; renewable energy and energy efficiency; and community-based interventions.
Eastern Caribbean Marine Managed Areas Network (ECMMAN) This project is funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety and is being implemented in six (6) OECS countries. The objectives of the project are: to declare new marine managed areas and strengthen existing ones; build strong constituencies for sustainable livelihoods and ocean use; improve and update an Eastern Caribbean Decision Support System (ECDSS) that provides accessible decision making tools and incorporates current ecological, socio-economic, and climate change data; and institute sustainability mechanisms to support the MMAs. In St. Vincent and the Grenadines the project has financed equipment and training for water quality testing, habitat maps and the establishment of a Face painting in ECMMAN marine spatial task force, interventions in marine livelihoods and a public public education campaign campaign to promote sustainable use of marine resources.
Sustainable Financing for the Protection of Marine Ecosystems of the Eastern Caribbean Project The Sustainable Financing for the protection of Eastern Caribbean marine ecosystems is a World Bank- funded project implemented in five (5) OECS countries. The objective of the project is to contribute to enhancing the long-term sustainability of protected area networks in the Eastern Caribbean by (i) establishing sustainable financing mechanism, (ii) strengthening marine protected networks and (iii) deploying a regional monitoring and information systems.

PPCR Monitoring
Monitoring of the PPCR is distinct from that of the RDVRP. PPCR monitoring is done annually on the five (5) core indicators. Monitoring, particularly on the national-level indicators is a fully participatory process.

Compose in-country stakeholder group
Establish scoring criteria for indicators 1,2 & 3 (est. 2014 validated 2015)
Establish scores for indicators 1 & 2
Collect and aggregate data for indicators 3, 4 & 5
Quality Assurance
Having composed an in-country stakeholder group, and established scoring criteria (2014 validated in 2015) the 2016 monitoring process began by soliciting data from representatives of the SPCR priority sectors. An online monitoring survey was developed and employed during this phase with technical assistance from the Caribbean Community Climate Change Centre (CCCCC). Two instruments were developed. The first targeted representatives of the SPCR priority sectors (scorers) asking respondents to rate sector-level progress on indicators one and two as well as report on the use of PPCR instruments implemented by their ministries (indicators four and five). The second instrument targeted members of the RDVRP implementation asking them to rate the extent to which PPCR instruments and activities hand been completed (indicator three). A link to the survey was emailed to respondents and the survey was active May 3rd to May 13th 2016. The survey yielded satisfactory response rate. All but one sector participated. Data from the survey was extrapolated via excel spreadsheet and aggregated to form the PPCR 2016 preliminary scorecard.

Following the data collection process and preliminary analysis a scoring workshop was convened involving a broader cross-section of stakeholders. The aim of the workshop was to present findings of the survey and achieve consensus on scores. In particular the workshop aimed to corroborate sector-level scores (indicators one and two). Participants worked in groups to review sector level scores, ensure alignment with scoring criteria and discuss activities (including non- PPCR related activities) which may contribute to PPCR goals. The workshop was well attended with representation from all SPCR priority sectors. There were no representatives from Non- Governmental Organisations or community groups.

Figure 4: Degree of integration of climate change in national and sector planning
The graph shows significant progress in integration of climate change into national and sector planning since the 2011 baseline. Leading with National Planning the development and launch of the National Economic and Social Development Plan in 2013 provided a base for the integration of climate change into planning at the national level and directed towards integration at the sector level. The plan which has five (5) overaching goals for development specifically named “building resilience to climate change” as part of its fourth goal: Improving Physical Infrastructure, Preserving the Environment and Building Resilience to Climate Change Strategic objectives under this goal include: To enhance the capability of St. Vincent and the Grenadines to prepare effectively for, respond to and mitigate disasters To ensure an adequate, safe, reliable and sustainable supply of water To conserve the natural resources of the country through effective utilisation and management To reduce the adverse impacts of climate change.
14 | P a g e
Goal Four detailed specific sector-level planning activities and interventions to be undertaken in addressing climate resilience. These activities include inter alia: Revise the existing National Disaster Management Plan to incorporate climate change Develop national land use policies and land-use zoning plans Strengthen the existing Integrated Watershed Management Plan Review and amend legislation regarding water supply and usage Develop and implement a Coastal Area Management Plan Develop a legislative framework to promote energy efficiency Establish an energy conservation plan
Besides development of the National Plan however only small pockets of progress have been made. Under the RDVRP a National Climate Change Policy and Action Plan is scheduled to be developed which will outline the policy as it relates to climate change and activities to be undertaken. This document is expected to be finalised in 2017. Several other national planning documents have been drafted or are expected to be developed soon. In 2015 St. Vincent approved and submitted its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) outlining its commitment to reduce greenhouse gases (GHGs) by 22 percent by 2025. St. Vincent is also expected to develop National Appropriate Mitigation Actions (NAMA) and National Adaptation Plans (NAP) identifying and implementing alternative low-emission and climate-resilient technologies. Work is expected to begin in 2016 under the J-CCCP. Additionally in 2015, the government of St. Vincent and the Grenadines restructured several government portfolios creating a ministry of Economic Planning, Sustainable Development, Industry, Information and Labour. Creation of this new ministry is expected to overall improve government’s capacity to mainstream climate resilience.
Water Resource Management Scores for water resource management have not changed significantly over 2014. An integrated Water Resource Management Plan was developed in 2007 but has not been approved. Water resource management issues will be addressed in an Integrated Coastal Zone Management Plan scheduled to be developed by project end. Other planning documents in the sector include: a CWSA Strategic Plan (2014-2018) which fully encapsulates climate resilience strategies to be employed and; a model OECS water sector policy and water resources act developed under the RRACC with participation from St. Vincent and the Grenadines. Several interventions are ongoing geared at increasing resilience and reducing risk to disaster. Two 500,000 gal storage tanks have recently been constructed (at Rose Hall and Belle Isle) increasing overall storage capacity. A new storage tank and filtration system was installed in
15 | P a g e
Sandy Bay improving access in that area. Improvements were also made to the Dalaway Pipeline to reduce the risk of damage to the network.
Land Management: The ministry of Housing, Informal Human Settlements, Lands and Survey and Physical Planning is making significant progress in the development of legislation and regulation to support mainstreaming of climate change. In 2014 a methodological framework for the development of a National Physical Development plan was completed. TORs are currently being developed for the elaboration of this plan. Besides the National Physical Development Plan as the main planning document, other planning and regulatory documents are currently being developed which address climate resilience. These include: i. land-use zoning plans for Union Island, Georgetown and Arnos Vale (the three PPCR pilot sites) which are being developed to incorporate climate resilience; ii. building codes which are being revised regionally through the OECS Secretariat to be more responsive to environmental concerns and resistant to natural disasters; iii. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) guidelines which set out the process for submission and approval of EIA in development have been drafted and are before the Attorney General; iv. the Town and Country Planning Act of which the guidelines will form a part.
The ministry has also recently appointed a focal point to advise on climate change and climate adaptation measures.
Agriculture: Progress has been made in the Agriculture sector in the planning and implementation of climate resilient strategies. The ministry has hired a consultant to help in the development of an Agriculture Sector Plan 2016-2025. This plan will include considerations for climate change iand will form the man planning document in the sector. The ministry has embarked on several initiatives to ‘climate smart’ agriculture in conjunction with the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO). These initiatives include planting drought-resistant crops, protection of the watercourse, and upper watershed management activities.
Disaster Management: Significant planning has also been undertaken in the disaster management sector. The national development plan specifically called for the revision of the National Disaster Management Plan to incorporate climate change. This plan has since been revised and approved and is being
16 | P a g e
implemented. The Disaster Act is also slated to be revised to include considerations for climate change and a National Search and Rescue Plan developed2. NEMO is working to implement strategies in its plans. NEMO’s Comprehensive Disaster Management Strategy identifies four (4) priority sectors for interventions for disaster risk reduction namely: education; health; agriculture and tourism. Interventions have begun in two of these four sectors. In the education sector, two initiatives Tsunami SMART Schools and School Safety Programme are ongoing. The School Safety Programme, started in 2010 by NEMO, involves school sensitisation and teacher training in school assessment and the development of disaster plans. Tsunami SMART Schools also targets teachers training them in the delivery of programmes on tsunami awareness. Additionally, NEMO undertakes annual awareness activities for geological hazards (earthquakes, volcanos, tsunamis) for schools and communities in the red– zone. An extension of the Tsunami SMART Schools in planned for 2016 with funding from CDEMA. Six (6) schools will be included these activities (three on Union Island and three on mainland St. Vincent) along with two communities. Tsunami SMART activities will focus on the development of school safety plans. In the health sector the Ministry of Health successfully retrofitted a Georgetown health facility to a SMART hospital with funding United Kingdom's Department for International Development (DFID) under the PAHO/WHO's SMART Hospitals program. SMART refers to a combination of safe and green interventions that result in hospitals being more resilient and with reduced impact on the environment including reduced pollution. Approval has since been given for several more clinics and hospitals to be ‘SMARTened’ under the project.

National Planning Scores in national planning have not moved significantly over the 2011 baseline when it averaged 53 percent. Discussions in 2015 stakeholder workshop revealed reluctance on the part of scorers to rate as ‘adequate’ the number of studies and experts available in their respective fields, this despite the increase in assessments and information generated by the project. Assessments include Georgetown and San Souci coastal studies, geotechnical site investigations and hydraulic and hydrology modelling at sites for bridges and fords. This information is however only available for limited geographic areas.
18 | P a g e
Water Resource Management Work is ongoing in the water management sector to improve capacity for mainstreaming climate resilience. Two persons have been certified in hydrology after having received training at the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology (CIMH) in Barbados and one person certified in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) at the University of the West Indies (St. Augustine). Several students received training under the project and assisted the CWSA in data collection related to the mapping of intake reservoirs, distributions lines and paths to dams. This exercise contributed to considerable improvement in the CWSA database. Equipment was also procured for the CWSA increasing capacity to collect temperature parameters. Under a 2009 agreement this data is shared regularly (monthly) with agencies such as Ministry of Transport and Work, Ministry of Agriculture Forestry, NEMO, and Airports. Altogether project activities have increased both the human capacity and the data available.
Land Management
In the land management sector, two persons have undertook degree-level training in physical planning and environmental studies with funding from the project and two persons from the Office of the Chief Engineer received certificate level training in climate related courses. Data in the sector has also improved with the completion of location-specific flood-hazard maps for Kingstown and Union Island. Data was collected by tertiary-level students trained under the project in a capacity building/knowledge sharing exercise.

Indicator three: Quality and extent to which climate responsive instruments have been developed and tested.
A climate responsive instrument or investment models is one that incorporates climate variability and climate change considerations or can be applied to enhance the climate resilience of people, products, systems or services. Examples include technologies or infrastructure investments, data analytical work or technical studies, public awareness platforms and financial instruments. Several climate responsive instruments have been developed by the PPCR and many are underway.
Component 1 – Prevention and Adaptation investments Activities in this component are designed to reduce physical vulnerability and fiscal shock caused by adverse natural events.
Design and construction of Satellite Warehouses to store emergency supplies (6 sites): [Sandy Bay, Rose Hall, Bequia, Mesopotamia, Georgetown, Union Island]: Satellite warehouses are being constructed in some of the most isolated communities in St. Vincent and the Grenadines to improve community resilience and increase localized capacity to respond to a disaster event. The warehouses will store emergency response equipment including rescue equipment, tools and first aid kits. The warehouses will cater equally to men and women in communities affected by disaster. Crown land has been identified for the construction of all warehouses (except for the case of Marriaqua) and ownership ceded to NEMO. Land for the Marriaqua warehouse is being acquired by the state and an Abbreviated Resettlement Action Plan (A-RAP) will be developed for this site. Designs for all warehouses are complete and construction on the Sandy Bay warehouse commenced December 2015. This is scheduled to continue for 12 months. Construction on the Rose Hall, Georgetown, Bequia and Union Island warehouses is scheduled to begin late 2016 and construction at Marriaqua will begin in 2017.

Retrofitting of Emergency shelters (3 sites) [Kingstown Government School, Dorsetshire Hill Government School, Union Island Learning Resource Centre]: Community emergency shelters in Kingstown, Dorsetshire Hill and Union Island will be retrofitted to improve community resilience and increase localized capacity to disaster. This investment tool will include considerations for males and females in its design with gender-specific bathrooms. It is particularly designed to address the needs of vulnerable communities. Designs for the retrofitting of the Kingstown and Dorsetshire Hill Government Schools have been completed. In both cases construction works will require students to be temporarily relocated. Students at the Dorsetshire Hill Government School have been located to alternate site and work on that facility is expected to begin in 2016. Facilities have been prepared for the temporary relocation of students of the Kingstown Government School. The project implementation team is working along closely with the Ministry of Education in the execution of this sub-project. Designs, specifications and an environment management plan have been completed for the Union Island facility. A Social Assessment management Plan (SAMP) is required for the temporary closure of the building. The Ministry of Education is also working closely with the project implementation team on the execution of this sub-project.
Retrofitting of the Union Island Learning Resource Centre
Study and design only for relocation of Milton Cato Memorial Hospital: A Safe Hospitals study conducted by PAHO revealed that the Milton Cate memorial Hospital was structurally unsound (vulnerable to category 1 hurricanes, flooding etc.) and that operational conditions were below accepted standards. The study recommended that a new hospital be constructed at an alternate location which adheres to higher structural standards. This sub-project will undertake activities including the completion of feasibility studies, Milton Cato Memorial Hospital (MCMH) designs and other pre-construction activities for the new hospital. The new hospital is expected to benefit the entire population of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
Health Service Analysis for the relocation of the Milton Cato Memorial Hospital was completed and submitted to cabinet in December, 2014. Cabinet has approved Arnos Vale as the location

Slope stabilization and road realignment (several sites) [Belle Isle, Coulls Hill, Petit Bordel, Rose Bank, Ginger Village, Maroon Hill, Mt. Greenan, Spring]: This sub-project will address failure of the slope at Ginger Village as well as vulnerable slopes adjacent to road infrastructure at Mt. Greenan, Spring and Maroon Hill. It will also address unstable road conditions at Belle Isle and Coulls Hill. The activity will include soil testing and geotechnical site investigations, detailed designs of appropriate interventions to ensure longer life and road traffic safety and Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) and Environmental Management Plans (EMPs). There will also be considerable community engagement in the identification of relevant causes and solutions. Geotechnical site investigation report and designs for works at Ginger Village have been completed. Land will need to be acquired in this area and an A-RAP completed. Geotechnical investigations at all other sites are ongoing.

River training and bridge rehabilitation (several sites) [Green Hill bridge, Dauphine bridge, North and South River bridges, Fenton river fords, Warrowarrow river]: This sub-project will involve bridge replacement, embankment protection and hydraulic design improvements at the North and South River bridges in Kingstown. The activity will protect major infrastructure in the vicinity including the main hospital, schools, several businesses and residents. Works will also be conducted at bridges in Green Hill, Dauphine and fords in Fenton. Technical studies including hydrology/hydraulic modeling have been completed for all sites. Works on the North and South River bridges are being planned in close consultation with community members and persons affected by the project (PAPs). Abbreviated-Resettlement Action Plans (A-RAPs) for both sites will be completed Rehabilitation of bridges at Fenton will improve access to farm lands and is expected to create an alternative route into Kingstown. Land acquisition is required for the rehabilitation of one of the three sites. Works at Fenton are also being planned in close consultation with the community and persons affected by the project (PAPs).

Component 2: This component is aimed at building regional capacity for assessment of natural risks and the integration of such assessment into policy and decision-making processes.
Regional collaboration for Natural hazard and climate change risk analysis and disaster management: This sub-project is aimed at strengthening among other things the existing hydro- meteorological network (both physical equipment and human capacity) throughout the country. Activities will provide training and capacity building for linking St. Vincent and the Grenadines with regional platforms in collaboration with the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology. Under this sub-project St. Vincent and the Grenadines is committed to the regional effort to build capacity to conduct assessment of natural risks and integrate assessment into policy and decision- making. Four (4) meteorological officers have completed training at the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology (CIMH) in Barbados. One officer is currently undergoing training and another will undertake training in Climatology in 2016. Equipment has also been procured and delivered to the Meteorological Office including barometers, anemometers, ceilometers and Automatic Weather Stations.

At the Central Water and Sewerage Authority (CWSA) two persons have been certified in hydrology after having received training at the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology (CIMH) and Barbados and one person trained in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) at the University of the West Indies (Trinidad). Several students received training under the project and assisted the CWSA in data collection such as mapping of intake reservoirs, distributions lines and paths to dams. This exercise contributed to considerable improvement in the CWSA database. Equipment was also procured for the CWSA increasing capacity to collect temperature parameters. As part of a 2009 agreement this data is shared monthly with agencies such as Ministry of Transport and Works, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, NEMO, and Airports. The data is also shared with the CIMH which acts an external hub for CWSA data. Also under this sub-project institutional strengthening would be provided to several public service institutions including NEMO, Ministry of Housing, Informal Informal Human Settlements, Land and Survey and Physical Planning, Ministry of Transportation and Works. Two (2) vehicles have been supplied to NEMO to improve their capacity to implement national programmes and a consultant hired to review and supervise the upgrade to its Emergency Communication Network (ECN). Several policies legislation and regulation will be drafted as part of this sub-project in support of mainstreaming climate resilience into planning. A Climate change adaptation policy and action plan will be developed outlining government’s policy as it relates to climate change and actions to be under taken. Terms of Reference for this activity are currently being developed. The activity is expected to begin late 2016.
Regional collaboration for watershed management - watershed to reef system, River defenses [Arnos Vale, Carriere, Buccament]: This component includes a scale-up of river defense activities from component 1 applied to Carriere and Buccament, and assessments and interventions in the in the Arnos Vale watershed. Activities at Buccament and Carriere are aimed at reducing the risk of community residents to flooding. Hydrological and hydraulic studies have been completed but designs for work at Buccament and Carriere have been put on hold. A watershed management plan was initially scheduled for the Arnos Vale area but has since been expanded to an integrated coastal zone management plan with consideration. Works on the Warrowwarrow river will protect critical infrastructure including the E. T. Joshua Airport, commercial enterprises and private property.

Regional collaboration for coastal protection - Coastal defense works (several sites) [Dark View, Georgetown, San Souci]: This sub-project is designed to pilot a combination of hard and soft measures to reduce the risk to life and critical public infrastructure in a vulnerable coastal setting. Lessons learned from this pilot would be captured and published with the participation of a regional technical agency. Coastal erosion will be investigated at these sites and suitable measures proposed. Interventions are expected to protect homes and infrastructure in the area of Dark View, Georgetown and San Souci. Feasibility studies and Environmental Assessments have been completed for the sites and engineering options presented. A portion of the study at Dark View was funded by the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB). Final designs for the works are expected to be delivered soon and works Land slippage at Dark View due to coastal erosion are scheduled to begin in 2016. Coastal modeling workshops have also been conducted to build capacity.
Climate Change adaptation - Union Island This sub-project aimed to pilot climate change adaptation interventions in a vulnerable community. Interventions to be piloted included: geological assessments inclusive of soil testing, ground water assessment and monitoring; implementation of appropriate shoreline numerical and physical modeling techniques; and development and application of a coastal zone management plan. Activities for Union Island have been mostly cancelled as they have since been by agencies such as The Nature Conservancy (TNC), the Central Development Bank (CDB) and NGOs. Work in Union Island will instead include reconstruction of the Clifton water tank to improve access to water on the island. Designs for the reconstruction of tank have been completed. The coastal zone management plan initially scheduled for Union Island has been expanded to a national Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) plan to be conducted with the above activities.

Adjustments to scoring criteria
Following extensive discussions at the 2014 and 2015 stakeholder workshops minor modifications were made to the scoring criteria for the 2016 process. (i) Screening processes were elaborated to include the application of checklists (with or without formal approval) once they can be identified. (ii) Criteria for studies and information generated were expanded to include type of information collected (e.g. climate change scenarios) and range of geographic areas to which it applied.
Discussions also unearthed the need for further elaboration on the type and range of experts that could be considered adequate (Indicator 2). Specifications have been drafted and will be vetted for use in the 2017 data collection process.
