*Reduction of Boulder’s and Ghaut Sand Impact* The community of Urlings is located at the bottom of a series of hills with a runoff which empties into a main water course leading to the sea. The community, developed on both sides of the water course, is impacted by significant volume of materials generated from unstable slopes as a result of previous bush fires, when it first started. However, the resultant impact continually persists even after many years. This intervention will capture the material at the bottom of the hills before it enters the village with a clean-out mechanism. The captured material can be used for construction by the Ministry of Works and the Public Utility Authority.	60,000	29,000
*National Disaster Display and Information Centre*This intervention would link the NODS website and make historic al hazard impact information readily available to those in need of this type of information. The information would also focus on the do’s and don’ts and identify areas of special interests such as flood prone areas, areas prone to landslides etc.	60,000	41,000
*Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Training* The CERT training initiative is expected to address the need to enhance the network of disaster management at the community level the CERTs would be integrated into the District Disaster Committee programme (DDC) system and strengthen response and basic search and rescue capability at the local level; orient members to the National System and roles and function of DDC system in response to emergencies and disasters at the community.	9,930	0
*Completion/Enhance of Search & Rescue training facility at Crabbs Peninsula*The need for further enhancements to the site was noted at recent training sessions and committee meetings held with both national and sub-regional teams.

*Grenada National Volunteer Service*The National Disaster Management Agency (NaDMA) depends on public and private stakeholders at all levels to provide efficient and reliable service. This requires a robust volunteer management system since the secretariat alone does not have the capacity to do so. There are seventeen district disaster committees comprising of community volunteers that assist the National Disaster Office (ND0) to fulfil its mandate. These community members are usually the first responders to an emergency and must be empowered through training as it relates to disaster management to save lives and protect property. Community members should know the proper procedures when an emergency or disaster occurs especially when communication fails.	58,872	6,099
*Upgrade of Emergency Operations Centres1. Installation of Generators at three DEOCs* The Government of Grenada has recently received three (3) District Emergency Operations Centres (DEOCs) from the United States Southern Command in 2013. Along with the three DEOCs, Grenada has received three Emergency stand-by generators, one for each of the DEOCs. In order to ensure that there is back-up emergency power supply at the DEOCs, the stand-by generators need to be installed and maintained. This project will provide the resources for the installation of three stand-by generators, along with protective housing for the units. 2. Construction of protective Housing for Generator at the NEOC The National Emergency Operations Centre (NEOC) currently has a stand-by generator that provides emergency power for the operations of the National Disaster Office, which houses the NEOC. The unit is currently functional and is being serviced regularly. However, the generator does not have a protective housing, which leaves it exposed to the elements of sun and rain. This exposure can lead to accelerated deterioration of the generator thus rendering it eventually non-functional and depriving the NEOC of critical back up power in the event of an emergency. This project will provide the resources for the construction of protective housing for the generator which serves the NEOC and the National Disaster Office.	36,880	8,000
*NAWASA’S School Community Water Storage Project*NAWASA continues to participate in the United Nations World Water Day Celebrations. The overarching objective of “Water Cooperation 2015” encourages and nurtures water sustainability under the theme ‘Water and Sustainable Development’. NAWASA was unable to provide trucked water to these schools because they had no or limited storage capacity. Communities have reached out to NAWASA stressing the negative impact such closures have on the nation. In light of this NAWASA designed a project aimed at ensuring that there is a basic water storage facility in all schools.	59,719	36,800

*Strengthening Community Based Preparedness and Response in Moraikabai – Region 5*Being the only Amerindian community in the Region, Moraikabai presents a unique indigenous culture and geography (Civil Defence Commission Guyana, 2015). Moraikabai, with its heavy reliance on farming, fishing, and logging as means of livelihood, is prone to flash flooding and droughts which present major socioeconomic challenges, with far reaching impacts for the community. Limited local capacity and coping mechanisms for Disaster Risk Management (DRM) are immediately evidenced by gaps in land use planning at the community level, skilled human resource, and adequately constructed homes. Moreover, when considering the large distance and timeframe which would be incurred in disaster response to Moraikabai from the Regional administration, the need for Community-Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) systems within the community becomes evident. Moraikabai heightened risk and vulnerability profile is a catalyst for the disproportionate impact of hazards in the community. With this in focus, enhanced collaboration through community-based networks, as a key approach to building resilience must be prioritized (Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015 to 2030, 2015). The CDC proposed to build Moraikabai resilience through CBDRM. CBDRM will equip the community members with the skills and tools necessary to adequately prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies or disasters within their community.	39,407	4,000

*Tsunami SMART Schools and Communities in St. Vincent and the Grenadines*St. Vincent and the Grenadines is a multi-island stated with the most southern inhabited island being Union Island, which is closer to Grenada than to mainland St. Vincent. On 23^rd July 2015, the Kick em Jenny submarine volcano located north of Grenada erupted. This resulted in wide spread panic throughout the eastern Caribbean and on Union Island. Many feared that the eruption would result in a tsunami and created widespread panic. This event and the fact that we are in a seismically active area highlights the need for the knowledge of tsunamis to be passed on throughout our communities and schools in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.	57,597	5,775
*Development of National Damage Assessment Policy, Plan and Procedures*Since 2010, St. Vincent and the Grenadines has been impacted by several hazards that required the activation of the damage assessment mechanism and process. Following Hurricane Tomas in 2010, the National Emergency Management Organisation (NEMO) coordinated the Detailed Sector Assessment (DSA) and with support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Barbados and the OECS a Damage and Loss Assessment was conducted. In 2011 following the April floods a detailed sector assessment was also completed and after the December 2013 floods a detailed sector assessment was conducted nationally, a rapid damage and loss assessment (DaLA) and a Post Disaster Needs Assessment (PDNA). Following the after-action review from both events and recommendations from the DaLA and PDNA reports it was noted that while the information for damage assessment is being collected efficiently, the forms and data sheets needed upgrading to reflect the local context. For example, the data has been collected in constituencies, but the census, poverty and economic data and parameters are collected via census districts. This therefore makes it difficult to analyse the data and correlate it with economic indicators and population figures.
