CARICOM has launched the second round of the Caribbean COVID-19 Food Security and Livelihoods Survey. Following the April 2020 survey that highlighted disruption to livelihoods and impacts on food security in the initial stages of the COVID-19 response, this round aims to capture the current state of affairs and analyse how livelihoods, food security and markets have shifted over the past few months. The survey is open to all CARICOM Member States and Associate Members, as well as Aruba, Curacao and Sint Maarten between 22 June – 6 July 2020. It takes a few minutes to complete and is available in English, French and Spanish.
This survey is conducted by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) on behalf of CARICOM, in cooperation with CDEMA and FAO, and made possible by the European Union Civil Protection and Humanitarian Operations (ECHO) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)/Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA).
On behalf of the Council of Ministers, Participating States and Coordinating Unit of the Caribbean Disaster Emergency Management Agency, I wish to express sincerest sympathy and condolences to those families who have lost loved ones as a result of Hurricane Dorian’s Impact. We also wish to express our empathy with the entire nation of the Bahamas and more in particular the people, residents and operators of businesses on the family islands of Abaco and Grand Bahama who have been displaced as a result of this recent catastrophe.
