HMCI to Participate in Joint Disaster Response Exercise with Int’l Team
Hazard Management Cayman Islands (HMCI) will host representatives of Global Support and Development (GSD) next week for a joint disaster response and preparedness exercise. In addition, Motor Vessel DAWN, operated by GSD and registered in the Cayman Islands, dropped anchor in George Town Harbour yesterday afternoon as part of DAWN’s first visit to the islands.
Global Support and Development is a United States based humanitarian organisation that works with local, national, and regional communities for resilience to crisis through rapid response, disaster preparedness, and climate adaptation. The training exercises are aimed at preparing both HMCI and GSD to support disaster response and preparedness efforts in the Cayman Islands and across the broader Caribbean region.
