Current Strategic Plan
|
CCRIF Strategic Plan 2018-2021 The CCRIF Strategic Plan 2018 – 2021 is being implemented during a period in which CARICOM has declared its bold ambition to make the Caribbean the first climate-resilient zone in the world. CCRIF wishes to play its part in helping our region realize this stated ambition. Thus, as CCRIF enters its second decade of operations, additional financing and capital injection will be required to support growth and to facilitate scaling up – that is increasing coverage levels amongst existing members, adding new members and offering new products.

Current Annual Report

CCRIF SPC Annual Report 2020 - 2021 Today, our member governments continue to grapple with both domestic and external challenges. From as early as the first quarter in January 2020, the Board and Management Team of CCRIF began to strategize and create scenarios on the possible impacts of the pandemic. This allowed us to quickly pivot and agree on our approach to support our member governments. We also began engaging with our development partners to determine how they too would help us to support our member governments. We remained cognizant of the multi-hazard environment in which we exist, and which would be further impacted by the pandemic. We are pleased that we did not for a minute pause and were able to secure funding in excess of US$30 million to support our member governments with their premiums for policy years 2020/21 and 2021/22 or to opt for purchasing increased coverage given the uncertainties that are associated with the changing climate.

Final Event Briefing - Wind and Storm Surge - TC Bonnie - Trinidad and Tobago - July 9 2022 Tropical Cyclone Bonnie was the second Tropical Cyclone of the 2022 Atlantic Hurricane Season. On June 28 and 29 the storm system had not yet been designated by NOAA as a tropical cyclone when it passed over Trinidad. However, at that time its maximum sustained winds were higher than 39 mph, which is the condition for a storm system qualifying as a CCRIF Tropical Cyclone Event (these conditions did not extended over Tobago), and therefore this event briefing report is issued for Trinidad. 20220709_CCRIF_FinalEventBriefing_TC-Bonnie_TRI_Final.pdf |

Booklet - CCRIF SPC Hazards, Disasters & Climate Change for Primary Level Kids A fun and interactive booklet for us kids to better understand natural hazards, disasters and climate change The booklet was developed as part of an initiative responding to requests from some of our stakeholders to become more involved in disaster risk reduction (DRR) activities “on the ground” and specifically to develop a disaster risk reduction programme in schools that would inculcate a culture of resilience and safety in our children. CCRIF always seeks to meet the needs of its member countries and consequently we have developed a Regional Disaster Risk Education and Communications Programme, which includes support for formal DRR community education, DRR programmes in schools and DRR communications for the general public.
