The National Climate Resilience Investment Plan is a national policy with a cross-sectoral approach. The purpose of the policy is to achieve: (I) capacity building for data and information for resilience activities, (II) resilient economy and livelihoods, (III) resilient critical infrastructure, (IV) enabling policy and regulation in place, and (V) coordination, management and monitoring and evaluation of resilience investments.

Adaptation to climate change, and climate variability, and comprehensive disaster risk management will be integrated into development planning. To this end, national spatial data infrastructure will be developed to support the assessment of climate change impacts and integration of disaster risk reduction into national development planning processes. In addition, the network of observation stations will be improved to assist with collection and analysis of hydro-meteorological data. The resilience of the women and men and economy of Belize to the impacts of climate change, climate variability and weather-related hazards will be increased through information dissemination to support smart decisions. Feasibility studies will be carried out for the most critical of the infrastructure resulting in measures to improve their performance and reliability during and after a major hazard.
