Provision of Materials and Installation of Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) Sytems for Morne Prosper, Dominica
Caribbean countries share similar economic and sustainable development challenges, including a small population, remoteness, susceptibility to natural disasters, and most importantly, vulnerability to climate change. Negative impacts associated with climate change on land, water resources and biodiversity have also been predicted, and ultimately, the main sectors of tourism and agriculture will be negatively impacted by these changes. Meanwhile, even though Caribbean countries emit relatively small amounts of greenhouse gas emissions, they will suffer disproportionately from the impacts of climate change.As such, the Government of Japan through the Japan-Caribbean Climate Change Partnership aims to support the implementation of actual technology that is both low-emission and advances climate risk management, including demonstration in the target countries. To this end, five demonstration projects are planned for Dominica which are tailored to meet the specific needs and vulnerabilities within local communities. Specifically, the required services will support one approved pilot initiative entitled Improving Seasonality and Diversity of Vegetable Production in Morne Prosper to enable the farmers in Morne Prosper to adopt the required climate smart agricultural practices by having rainwater harvesting systems to irrigate their crops.
