Building climate change resilience and social integration of displaced people in Western Belize

This project enhances prevention, protection, and solutions for communities facing disaster and climate-related displacement in settlements in the northeast Cayo District of Western Belize. The project plans to use an integrated and participatory approach with the involvement of the central and local Government of Belize, international organizations, settlement interest groups and academia. The overall objective of this project is to support displaced persons in six such settlements (Los Tambos, Duck Run 1, 2 and 3, Billy White and Santa Familia) in the region, enabling their inhabitants to become productive members of their communities and participate in furthering their own resilience, growth and the sustainable development of the region.
