Building resilience in small island developing states

No. 33
August 2014

Small island developing states (SIDS) face many challenges linked to their social, physical and environmental characteristics. But many success stories are emerging of how communities, organisations and governments are working together to overcome these challenges. CTA works with partners to help shape a new future for the people of the islands in building their resilience for food and nutrition security. CTA is organising several events in the coming months at both the UN SIDS conference in September and the Caribbean Week of Agriculture in October.
