Santa Familia Boosted with Emergency Response Equipment

The village of Santa Familia strengthened its disaster readiness with essential emergency response equipment from the Ministry of Sustainable Development and Climate Change and TaiwanICDF. The initiative is part of the Flood Warning Capacity Improvement for the Belize River Basin Project. 

The equipment will assist the community with the impacts of the increasing threats posed by climate change and allow residents to manage natural disasters better and protect their livelihoods. 

The new equipment includes emergency response kits, communication tools, and disaster relief supplies. The handover follows a training session held in March. This training focused on equipping the community with the skills to handle emergencies effectively.
