The Clearinghouse was initiated more than 15 years ago as part of the Caribbean Planning for Adaptation to Climate Change (CPACC) project. It began with a few documents and currently stands with over one thousand seven hundred. Each month, new climate and development resources are added including books, toolkits, strategy documents, project reports, scientific studies and scholastic articles. Moreover, anyone can upload to the Clearinghouse making it a truly open resource for the Caribbean community. More than eight thousand documents are downloaded from the Clearinghouse each month (peaking last year at eighteen thousand). It serves as a hub for knowledgesharing on climate change both for and by the people of the Caribbean.
