Grenada Hurricane Resilent Home Reconstruction Program G(HR)2
The Grenada Hurricane Resilient Home Reconstruction Program G-(HR)2 is being
executed by the Organization of American States’ Department of Sustainable Development
(OAS/DSD) with funding from the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), as part
of the development and technical assistance program established within the framework of the
post-Ivan reconstruction process initiated after September 2004. Under the G-(HR)2 Program,
the Construction Quality Assurance (CQA) Project will be implemented during a 2-year period
from November, 2006 to September, 2008, and is aimed at establishing a Residential Construction
Quality Assurance (CQA) Mechanism that is capable of improving the resiliency to natural hazards
of the country’s residential constructions.
The primary outcome to be generated is the strengthening of the Grenada Building
sector’s institutional and technical capacities for reducing the risks and impacts
associated with natural hazards, particularly in the middle-income residential built
environment. This to be achieved through:
Increasing the technical capabilities of the governmental
institutions and agencies involved in the construction sector for monitoring and
enforcing the country’s prescribed construction regulations;
Enhancing the local building professionals’ technical capacities
to integrate natural hazards resilient construction designs and practices in their
works, while creating an enabling environment for the emergence of the necessary
pre-requisites capable of improving their legislative framework of functioning; and
Supporting the local financial institutions
(Mortgage and Insurances agencies) in integrating safer construction practices
in their operational mechanisms, by intensifying their involvement as primary means
for achieving natural hazards resiliency in the middle-income building sector.
