National Environmental Summary [NES]-Grenada (2010)

The  National  Environmental  Summary  (NES)  for  Grenada  has  been  developed  by  UNEP,  with financing from the European  Community (EC). It  serves as  an information  tool to  support  the incorporation  of  environment  as  a  thematic  component  into  the  United  Nations  Common Country  Assessment  (CCA)  and  the  United  Nations  Development  Assistance  Framework (UNDAF)  initiatives.  This  environmental  summary  is  intended to  provide  a critical  analysis  of gaps  and  opportunities  that  exist  within  policies,  programmes  and  the  national  legislative framework all of which are used to address the major environmental issues within the context of poverty reduction and development.  

The  contributions  and  support  provided  through  the  consultation  process  by  the  various Government  agencies,  regional  organizations  and  international  agencies  working  in  and  for Grenada  are  well  acknowledged. In  particular,  the  assistance provided  by  Ms.  Helen  Roden, Permanent Secretary (ag), Ministry of Environment, Foreign Trade and Export Development in facilitating the consultation is much appreciated.
