I was able to participate virtually for parts of this conference, organized by IAMovement and The National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago. The conference covered both development and financing opportunities for Green Infrastructure. The Vetiver System was well featured, and clearly is building governmental, regional institutional, and community support for its potential as a key tool for land restoration, soil and water conservation, slope stabilization, disaster mitigation, and associated business and community opportunities. Regional institutions like the Inter-American Development Bank are specifically interested in programs that address climate change and related Ecosystem-based Adaption (EbA). The Vetiver System generally fits well into required EbA criteria especially when relating to land restoration and helping people and their adapt to the effects of climate change. Ridge to Reef projects fit well here. Some short presentations by the University of the West Indies campus at St Augustine (I studied for a post grad Diploma in Tropical Agriculture there in 1963!) provided some background for some practical on site vetiver related research that is being carried out in cooperation with the IAMovement.
