Cross-border crime crackdown: Dominica took part in Operation ATLAS NEXUS, a major international push against organised crime that led to 490+ arrests and seizures including 803 wild animals and livestock, 201 firearms, and hundreds of fraudulent documents—also targeting environmental crime. Climate & health preparedness: The Ministry of Health and the Dominica Meteorological Service released the third Health-Climatic Bulletin (Sept–Nov), warning of below-average rainfall but an extremely high flash-flood risk, plus heat impacts and ongoing dengue and leptospirosis concerns. Child-centred climate risk: UNICEF-backed research says no “safe zone” for Eastern Caribbean children—more than 9 in 10 could face at least three climate hazards by mid-century, with rising heat, drought, and stronger storms. Fisheries resilience funding: Dominica hosted the launch of CC4FISH-II, a US$12.55m GEF-backed project to strengthen climate and disaster resilience in Caribbean fisheries, benefiting 21,800+ people through 2030. Flood watch: A tropical wave prompted a flood watch for Dominica, with scattered showers that could turn moderate to heavy and isolated thunderstorms. Local environment-linked recognition: Environmental scientist and filmmaker Farrah La Ronde-Hutchison’s “Women of Dominica” won Best International Documentary at Miami’s Urban Film Festival.
