S4E12 - Mainstreaming DRR & Caribbean Solidarity

Thanks so much to Barbara Carby for joining us this week! Barbara is Director of Disaster Risk Reduction Centre at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus and the former Director General of the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Emergency Management in Jamaica. We discuss DRR mainstreaming in the Caribbean and how states support each other and leverage their capacities in solidarity, as well as misconceptions about the region and labelling people as "resilient" or "vulnerable".
