abstract="The multi-hazard vulnerability of Caribbean SIDS has underpinned the repeated saga of destructive natural and anthropogenic events that have disrupted land, livelihood, economy, and society over the past several decades. Preparedness and response have been the focus of national governments and regional entities and the repeated battering brings into question the concept of recovery and &quot;building back better&quot;. This paper will examine the concept of recovery in the context of the Caribbean paying particular attention to the experience of selected territories of Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Dominica, Guyana, Jamaica and St Vincent and the Grenadines, which have been recently impacted by different disasters. This paper will also explore the similarities among the recommendations for recovery needs where key insights will be presented on suggested approaches for an inclusive people-centred recovery process that Builds Back Better.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
