CARICOM Leaders in Jamaica After Hurricane Melissa: Urgent Climate Resiliency Fund Proposed
Regional disaster management and emergency relief operations underway following Hurricane Melissa.
Caribbean Community (CARICOM) leaders assembled in Kingston, Jamaica, for an extraordinary humanitarian summit in the catastrophic wake of Hurricane Melissa, which caused widespread infrastructural and agricultural destruction across several island territories.
Speaking from the devastation zone, regional leaders pressed multilateral development banks and global climate finance funds to operationalize emergency debt suspension clauses that allow affected governments to divert fiscal resources directly into rebuilding hospitals, power grids, and seawalls.
