This revised Grenada 2018 National Forest Policy has been informed by a number of in-country consultations, supplemented by online surveys, a desk review of national, regional and international needs and gaps, as well as a rapid assessment of the implementation of the 1999 policy which this document replaces. These information sources have pointed to climate change as a key overarching national concern, emphasising the need for forest cover for climate mitigation, healthy forests for climate resilience and focused management of forests to facilitate their adaptation to climate change including adaptation to high intensity storms and hurricanes.
