Report from roundtable discussions, 30 January 2018

This document summarizes the discussions during a meeting that focused on recovery after the 2017 hurricanes in the Caribbean region. This meeting convened donors and some of the world’s leading experts on recovery and reconstruction to discuss the policies and investments needed at the national, regional and international level to avoid future losses. 

The roundtable discussions aimed to deepen understanding of how concepts of ‘building back better’ and ‘resilient recovery’ can be implemented by matching the challenges and priorities of Caribbean governments and community representatives with innovative solutions and recommendations based on the latest science, technical expertise and policy lessons.
