Most health centres that have undergone a SMART Hospital assessment in Grenada do not have a water conservation plan. This plan, if implemented, can make a facility more resilient to the impacts of climate change such as more drought-like conditions.

As part of an initiative, under the Climate Resilient Water Sector in Grenada (G-CREWS) project to mainstream climate resilience in water-related sectors, the development of a water conservation plan for medical facility, along with the perceived benefits, is elaborated in this document below.

Over a six-year period, the Government of Grenada, the Grenada Development Bank and the National Water and Sewerage Authority (NAWASA) in partnership with the German Development Corporation (GIZ) will implement this project.

The G-CREWS project is jointly financed by the Green Climate Fund (GCF) and the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU) under its International Climate Initiative (IKI), and the Government of Grenada.
