Review of the Caribbean Disaster Management Strategic Framework 2009-2014

The external review of the DM Framework 2009-2014 follows the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC)’s invitation to Le Groupe-conseil Baastel Ltée (hereafter, ‘Baastel’) to undertake an assessment of the DM Framework over the five year period. The main objective of this external review is to assess the implementation of the DM Framework measuring to what extent the objective and results have been achieved. The methodology is embedded in a process which will further lead to the development of an integrated Red Cross DM Framework that is focused on resilience for the Caribbean region. This review is an initial response to the assessment portion of this broader mandate.
