Dear Readers,
Welcome to the April edition of Snapshots. As is usually the there are a number of interesting developments in DRM capacity building across the region that we have been fortunate to be able to contribute to and I hope you enjoy reading about them in this addition.
In addition, we are pleased to advise that good progress is being made on securing €20 million for Pacific ACP States in relation to the EU EDF10 ACP-EU Natural Disaster Facility. We’re working hard to complete the necessary documentation for the NDF this year so that the funds can flow through to the region to facilitate implementation of country priorities in early 2013.
These funds will provide complementary support to a range of funding mechanisms which the region benefits from already through both the ‘disaster’ lens and as well through Climate Change Adaptation support.
I hope you enjoy this edition.
