Last update: 10 hours ago

Climate Adaptation Funding: Dominica’s DOMCREP resilience project is set to reach 8,000 people in eight vulnerable communities, with $70.2 million earmarked for climate-smart farming, irrigation, greenhouses, water security, and emergency preparedness. Biodiversity & Agriculture Biosecurity: The Plant Protection and Quarantine unit warns lethal yellowing disease is still threatening coconuts, with over 12,000 trees destroyed to contain spread, while the Dominica National Conservation Trust Fund and Caribbean Biodiversity Fund provide $93,000+ to support disease containment and coral reef development in Soufrière. Energy Transition: PM Skerrit says Dominica is commissioning its geothermal plant, noting outages are part of testing and integration, with promised lower rates and less dependence on imported fuel. Hurricane Readiness: As the 2026 season begins, shelters were inspected and supplies reviewed under NEPO coordination, with calls for early preparedness. Local Food Security: Government plans a nearly $700,000 animal feed mill to cut import dependence, using locally grown cassava in feed trials. Youth Climate Learning: A Junior Climate Resilience Champions summer program will train about 125 children on climate and disaster readiness through community action. Regional Trade & Services: CARICOM trade ministers meet in Guyana as global energy and food price pressures threaten food security and growth, while OECS services training is scheduled regionally. Citizenship by Investment Update: Dominica tightens CBI rules, requiring successful applicants to visit in person and spend time locally to collect renewed passports.
