The Caribbean has a markedly underdeveloped sanitation sector that poses significant risks to health, the environment and the tourism industry upon which the local economy depends. There is a strong need to strengthen the national and regional sanitation sectors, including onsite solutions, simplified sewerage and other related approaches, and policies, institutions, regulations, financing, and data management. With the climate crisis exacerbating the situation, UNICEF, the World Bank and CDEMA co-convened a workshop to bring greater attention to the situation and develop concrete actions to address it. At the end of the workshop, the co-convenors and participants launched a 10-country Cohort of nations interested in advancing Climate Resilient Safely Managed Sanitation (CRSMS).
