By Zoila Palma: The Cabinet met on May 20, 2025, to review national preparedness efforts for the upcoming hurricane season.
The meeting included a detailed briefing from the Chief Meteorologist and the Coordinator of the National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) on response plans and emergency frameworks.
The presentation emphasized a rapid response strategy leveraging local, national, and international resources, building on the National Disaster Preparedness and Response Plan approved by Cabinet on April 15, 2025.
As part of the preparations, Cabinet endorsed a joint proposal by NEMO, the National Meteorological Service, and the National Hydrological Service to host a media training workshop on May 28, 2025.
The session aims to strengthen coordination with the media to ensure timely and accurate hazard warnings reach all Belizeans.
Additionally, the National Disaster Preparedness and Response Advisory Committee (NDPRAC) will meet on May 29 to further refine emergency response strategies. The committee plays a key role in advising the Prime Minister on all aspects of disaster management, from preparedness to recovery.
Cabinet is urging the public to take early action: finalize family emergency plans, prepare disaster kits, and identify safe shelter locations in case of a storm threat.
