This climate risk profile concerns the countries of the Eastern and Souther Caribbean (ESC). USAID’s development assistance in the Eastern and Southern Caribbean region extends to 11 countries: Antigua and Barbuda, The Bahamas, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, Guyana, St. Kitts and Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago.

The high vulnerability to, and potential for, climate impacts throughout the region often drive direct integration of climate risk management into the country and regional planning processes.

The resilience of countries is a high priority under the USAID/ESC Mission’s Regional Development Cooperation Strategy for 2020-2025. Under this strategy, the ESC Mission will build regional, national and community-level resilience to climate change specifically, as a key strategy for reducing overall risk from natural hazards.
