This report analyses data collected from interviews conducted with 202 Barbudans currently displaced in neighbouring Antigua and those who have returned to Barbuda in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma. This round of interviews took place between 15 December 2017 and 6 Jan 2018, roughly three months after Hurricane Irma made landfall. As part of the H2H Network’s DFID-funded mission in the Caribbean, Ground Truth Solutions, an NGO, is providing a regular flow of feedback on community perceptions about the effectiveness of the response and their evolving needs. The surveys offer decision-makers insight into community concerns as the basis for programmatic course corrections and to manage people’s expectations. This report covers the second of three rounds of surveys in Antigua and Barbuda. The next round of data collection will take place in February 2018.
