dc.description.abstractTwo of the development challenges that Belize has recently worked on, with support from the IDB Group, are vulnerability to climate change and educational quality. The measures implemented on both fronts have allowed relevant achievements. In terms of climate resilience, flooding has been significantly reduced, as a result of investments in infrastructure and, especially, in nature-based solutions. Regarding the quality of education, progress has been made with innovative pedagogical models and teaching in STEAM areas (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics).
