Barbados will significantly strengthen its financial risk management of natural disasters and extreme climate events with a US$80 million contingent loan approved by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) that provides a stable, cost-effective, and quick access instrument to cover immediate extraordinary public expenditures during emergencies caused by severe or catastrophic natural disasters.
In 2003, the Barbados government embraced the Comprehensive Disaster Management (CDM) Strategy. This strategy represented a deliberate attempt by the CDEMA Participating States to holistically incorporate all phases of the disaster management cycle (prevention, mitigation, preparedness and response, recovery, and rehabilitation) while focusing on promoting and accelerating disaster risk reduction initiatives.Barbados is also the CDEMA Central Sub-regional Focal Point (SRFP) for the Eastern Caribbean with response responsibility for the countries of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, and the Commonwealth of Dominica. A regional model SRFP Protocol has been developed by CDEMA and Barbados is in the process of adapting it (DEM, 2010).
