| Summary: | The study undertakes a review of the Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (PRSPs), and
Interim Poverty Reduction Strategy Papers (I-PRSPs) of four selected Caribbean SIDS from the
Eastern Caribbean. The countries had participated in the Poverty Reduction Strategy initiative
formulated by the World Bank. The country papers reviewed were the Commonwealth of
Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia and St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The review assesses and
provides a comparative analysis of the general awareness of the notions of vulnerability and the
inclusion and use of strategies that address the reduction of vulnerability and the strengthening of
resilience by the countries reviewed. It also explores how vulnerability reduction strategies were
applied to differing groups, as elaborated through the PRSPs. |
