In the DIPECHO Action Plan 2011-2012 for the Caribbean the following actions have been considered:

• Local disaster management components, targeting local actors in disaster prone areas: early warning system, mapping and data computerization, local capacity building, training.
• Institutional linkages and advocacy, targeting institutions involved in disaster management/disaster risk reduction, in particular at regional, national and subnational levels: advocacy, facilitation of coordination, institutional strengthening.
• Information, Education and Communication, targeting direct and indirect beneficiaries: awareness raising among the general public, education and dissemination
• Small scale infrastructure and services, at community level: infrastructure support and mitigation works, reinforcing critical infrastructure, operation and maintenance systems; non structural mitigation activities, and support to specific adaptation initiatives.
• Stock building of emergency relief items, targeting the reinforcement of the response capacity of local actors and institutions in disaster-prone areas with the aim of contributing to ensuring an adequate response to natural disaster by strengthening the response capacity in the early hours and days of a disaster.

The three regional and 8 national projects are currently working in these areas. The list of projects and which partners are involved can be seen below:
