Jamaica: Community disaster risk management and climate change adaptation plan of Accompong, St. Elizabeth

March 2022

This plan is the Community Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) Plan for the community of Accompong. It is one of several CDRM and CCA Plans that support the formation of the Zonal Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Adaptation Committees/Plans for St. Elizabeth. The Accompong Disaster Risk Management and Climate Change Adaptation Plan represents the operational procedures and strategies to be employed at the community level in response to and preparing for a number of hazards.

The Plan will cover pre and post-impact aspects of disaster risk management, that is, prevention, mitigation, preparedness and response. The Plan will also cover long-term climate change adaptation strategies that will be important for the community to prepare for future variations in climatic conditions. The plan focuses on climate and non-climate natural hazards identified by the community including earthquakes, landslides, hurricanes, flooding and droughts.
