The Caribbean is highly vulnerable to natural disasters and climate-related hazards that can disrupt education, damage school infrastructure, and affect learning continuity. To address these risks, CDEMA, with support from UNICEF, developed the online Safe Schools: Disaster Risk Reduction and Resilience course to strengthen school safety and disaster preparedness among education professionals.
Building on the success of the online course, this initiative aims to develop a competency-based, face-to-face training programme that emphasizes practical skills, peer learning, and school-level action planning. The resulting training package will serve as a standardized regional resource that can be adapted and delivered by Ministries of Education and other institutions to strengthen the resilience and preparedness of education systems across the Caribbean.

South Africa’s health system relies on provincial governments to allocate budgets and procure essential
commodities, including vaccines and nutrition supplies, within a decentralized fiscal framework. While national
authorities are responsible for forecasting needs, provincial autonomy in budgeting and procurement decisions
can result in misalignment between planned requirements and actual resource allocation. This contributes to
variability in commodity availability across provinces, affecting service delivery and outcomes. Given that
vaccines and nutrition commodities are critical inputs for Primary Health Care (PHC), disruptions in their
availability can undermine continuity of care, equity, and the effectiveness of child health services, ultimately
impacting child health outcomes such as immunisation coverage, nutritional status, morbidity, and mortality.
