The Caribbean Facing Natural Hazards
🌀 Hurricanes, 🌊 tsunamis, 🌋 volcanoes, 🌧️ floods, 🌱 droughts…
Here, hazards are numerous – and often sudden.
And that’s not all ! Add to that :
- island territories sometimes isolated,
- rapid urbanization,
- social inequalities,
- and a changing climate that makes everything more complex…
The result : every year, our societies must adapt, prepare, and learn how to bounce back.
the good news :
you can make a difference.
