Within the Wider Caribbean Region (WCR), the Global Environment Facility (GEF) is supporting an increasing number and diversity of regional environmental projects under its various portfolio areas. These projects are generating valuable experiences, lessons and opportunities for increased regional collaboration that will improve the effectiveness of these projects’ interventions. However, national and regional mechanisms are often lacking for the sharing of experiences and lessons from the development and implementation of GEF projects. There are concerns that as the GEF portfolio grows, projects may overlap, opportunities for synergies may be lost, antagonistic linkages may develop, and major gaps may continue to exist. Providing a forum for dialogue at the project management and technical levels will be critical as the number of projects and actors increase in the WCR.
