In the Caribbean, nations are challenged by issues around water quantity and quality while maintaining the healthy functioning of vital ecosystems. The Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) Framework for the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Region was developed in 2022, given consensus that a unified approach was needed for the efficient and sustainable management of water resources and a climate resilient future. A key step in actioning the IWRM Framework is the achievement of Strategic Goal (SG) 1: Improve capacities/ frameworks for holistic, multi‐sectoral and cross‐cutting disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation that integrates circular economic principles and gender considerations. CARPHA is seeking support for two strategic objectives under SG 1: a) develop a regional water‐related infectious disease manual (a practical manual for use by environmental health officers in CARPHA Member States and b) develop regional water quality standards that are in line with accepted international standards.
