摘要
This paper is a reflective contribution on the issues and processes that have influenced and informed the development and institutionalization of disaster management practice and policy in the Caribbean over the last two and a half decades. It takes the viewpoint of a participant observer' and seeks to not only describe the events and triggers but also to raise some key questions necessary to chart the way forward.
