Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) - Emergency Recovery and Disaster Management Program Project
Jordan | Dar Al-Handasah
The Emergency Recovery and Disaster Management Program Project for the countries comprising the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States--St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, Dominica, Grenada, and St. Vincent & the Grenadines--will finance lending operations in each of the five mentioned countries with the objects of 1) fortifying, or reconstructing and rehabilitating key economic and social infrastructure and facilities to minimize damage or disruption caused by future natural and man-made disasters and to speed emergency recovery following such disasters; and 2) strengthening the countries' institutional capacities to prepare for and respond to disaster emergencies efficiently and effectively. Assistance to St. Kitts & Nevis consists in particular of a fast disbursing loan for essential imports. The countries are aided in rebuilding and rehabilitating infrastructure related to hospitals, shelters, water supply, electricity, roads and coastal protection, and airports, thereby restoring public services. Similarly, the five countries are helped in strengthening their emergency preparedness and response systems; and in training, technology, and equipment for institutional strengthening.
