The catastrophic damage to livelihoods and billions of dollars of infrastructure on this archipelago present significant challenges to the preparedness of its tourism -dependent economy and its rescue and recovery capacity. The Interamerican Development Bank (IDB) committed itself to a restoration effort that would be far -reaching and strengthen the island chain against future natural disasters.

It analyzes key vulnerabilities and threats and compiles findings from assessments with recommendations to build resilience in a way that honors the nation’s past while advancing the present and preserving its future. This report provides The Bahamas with data that supports meaningful policy reforms to promote strategic decision making regarding natural disasters. 2020-08-31T23:05:20Z 2020-08-31T23:05:20Z 2020-08-31 Texto Documento Completo http://hdl.handle.net/11362/45968 LC/TS.2020/31 en .pdf application/pdf BAHAMAS BAHAMAS ECLAC IDB
