Global Water Partnership-Caribbean (GWP-C) in conjunction with its partner, the Caribbean Council for Science and Technology (CCST) has been awarded funding from the Perez-Guerrero Trust Fund for the creation of a Rainwater Harvesting Model for the Caribbean. The project which is set to run for one year will be conducted in two phases.

The first phase involves desktop research and an analysis of models of rainwater harvesting throughout the Caribbean and other developing countries with a view to determining some best practices for promotion in the Caribbean.

The second phase is the production of an appropriate model for the region. The model will be translated into Spanish and French and distributed throughout the Caribbean by GWP-C.
