This review, along with other sectoral reviews, contributes towards the National Biodiversity and Strategy Action Plan for
Grenada. This review focuses on land use and environmental planning. The documents initially assesses the status of land
use and environmental planning in Grenada, socio-economic and political conditions of land use, existing institutional and
legislative framework for land use and environmental planning, and cross sectoral issues, existing measures/ programs. An
array of activities with adverse impacts has been identified, along with a summary of gaps within the sector. An analysis of
the root causes of biodiversity has been provided such as market failure, government/ policy failure, institutional failure,
poverty and proximate causes of loss of biodiversity. Furthermore, it assesses the existing needs such as a comprehensive
land policy, physical development plan, inter alia, regulations for Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA), and the
development of Best Management Practices.

This study sought to understand the phenomenon of poverty in St. Vincent and the Grenadines both from primary and
secondary data sources and from the people themselves. The findings are based on three main sources: a national survey,
community-level situational analyses (CLSAs) and an analysis of key institutions and organisations. The objective was to
arrive at measures to address both the immediate conditions of poverty and the underlying factors that lead to such poverty.
