New Regional Emergency Shelters To Enhance The Community’s Disaster Response And Recovery

Government has commissioned Two Regional Emergency centers as the nation strives toward the goal of being the world’s first climate resilient nation.

These centers will enhance Dominica’s Hurricane Preparedness by reducing the strain on conventional resources such as schools and churches and enhance the resilience of the districts through the provision of a resilient multi-purpose facility.

Parliamentary representative for the Castle Bruce constituency Octavia Alfred on Wednesday welcomed the first new facility saying the structure will enhance the community’s disaster response and recovery.
