Dominica — often called the Caribbean’s “Nature Island” — combines steep, forested mountains, extensive freshwater systems, and a rich assemblage of endemic plants and animals. That landscape is both the foundation of its tourism economy and the front line of climate impacts: intense storms, landslides, coastal erosion and changing rainfall patterns. Hotels and resorts across Dominica are increasingly translating corporate social responsibility (CSR) into practical actions that strengthen climate resilience and conserve forests while sustaining community livelihoods and visitor experiences.Why hotels matter for Dominica’s resilience and forestsEconomic leverage: Tourism serves as a key source of employment and a prominent outlet…

Bahrain has positioned itself as a compact but influential financial hub in the Gulf, combining a well-established banking sector, an early-adopter regulator for fintech, and an ecosystem of development agencies.

The Bahamas at the crossroads of tourism and marine stewardshipThe Bahamas is a nation where its economy and identity are closely bound to its coastlines, coral reefs, mangrove forests, seagrass meadows and crystal-clear waters. Tourism—ranging from luxury resorts and dive operators to charter vessels and small islands that host independent travelers—provides a substantial portion of the country’s income and jobs.

In a world still grappling with the consequences of rigid gender roles, Promundo is quietly redefining how equality can be achieved. By engaging men and boys as active partners, the organisation demonstrates that lasting social change relies on shared responsibility.Since its founding in 1997, Promundo has challenged the notion that gender equality is solely the responsibility of women and girls. Instead, it promotes an inclusive approach that involves all members of society in reshaping norms, behaviors, and expectations.
