process; one single regional but separate national
co-ordinating mechanisms in each country
• ONE M&E SYSTEM: measures progress,
transparency and value for money

Case Study
Bequia
Sustainable water supply
• Key vulnerability: Fresh Water
• Solution: Salt-water desalinization – Salt water reverse
osmosis
• Advantages:
– Greater energy and water security
– Could be easily expanded to meet growing community
demand
– Only three months to assemble
– Is a baseline to assess the effectiveness of replicating it
Case Study
The Coconut Bay Resort & Spa
Rainwater and Upgraded Wastewater Treatment and
Recycling Facility
Advantages:
• Cost effectiveness
• New policy guidline
