St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Water is a national priority in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Several strategic interventions are focusing on water supply which is evidence of the national commitments to improve water resource management. Also, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines has a roadmap towards Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) for Union Island developed under the Global Environment Facility-funded project called Integrating Watershed and Coastal Areas Management in Caribbean Small Island Developing States (IWCAM).  Already 39% of the resorts use treated wastewater, a promising outlook to increasing wastewater reuse in the country.

The country has been participating in various regional efforts to establish database and information systems, an area that will be supported by the GEF CReW+ project to assist in improving evidence-based decision-making.
