81257043-Climate-Resilient Water Sector in Grenada (G-CREWS) — Consultancy in Water Resources Management and Water Utility Management

The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF) have commissioned us to implement the above project. This work involves increasing systemic climate resilience in Grenada's water sector. Climate change poses a severe threat to Grenada's water supply because the small island developing state (SIDS) relies on surface water sources and rainwater catchment. The project supports the water sector's comprehensive transformation on multiple levels, which represents a nationwide ‘paradigm shift’ for Grenada's overall resilience. This paradigm shift will include citizens and businesses as water users, the public sector as provider of potable water and infrastructure. Through appropriate governance, regulation, economic incentives and raising awareness, behaviour changes will be triggered. The G-CREWS project consists of the following five components: — climate-resilient water governance, — climate-resilient water users, — climate-resilient water users, — additional contributions of the water sector to Grenada's climate goals, — regional learning and replication. The consultant will contribute to the outputs through capacity building of the Grenadian water utility company and the strengthening of the planned water resource management.
