St. Bernard, Godfrey

Towards a social vulnerability index in the Caribbean - Port of SpainTT ECLAC 2003 - 62 p.

Looks at vulnerability status as an attribute that is critical to determining the survival of sustainable development processes. Notes that there has been a dearth of contributions focusing primarily on social vulnerability. Attempts to highlight alternative approaches that have been proposed in recent times and stimulates debate towards the establishment of a mechanism for which there ought to be concensus.
