OVERVIEW
Urgent technical assistance to support CCMI’s capacity to be a regional leader in protecting marine biodiversity and improving resilience
This project was funded by the European Union.
CCMI operates a remote marine field station where we host year-round residential research and education programmes. As international borders relaxed travel rules (2022), and Covid-19 has become part of everyday operations, this grant supported CCMI’s adaptation and resilience to operating safely within the context of the pandemic. This grant enabled CCMI to manage the impacts of Covid-19 by improving health and safety features of the facilities infrastructure and adapting emergency management processes to support enhanced operational resilience, thereby supporting CCMI’s continued work on improving and protecting marine biodiversity in the Cayman Islands and wider Overseas Territories.
The award from RESEMBID helped CCMI to adapt and strengthen our organizational capacity to support these changes.
Improved safeguarding and hygiene via facilities, protocols, and emergency management
Adaptation was required for CCMI to become prepared and resilient to the impacts of the pandemic in a world where Covid-19 is a real and tangible threat.
