🎥 Interview : what are the main risks related to water management in island territories?

During our workshop in Barbados, Deborah Barlow, Climate and Environmental Officer for the Falkland Islands Government, shared key insights on the challenges the archipelago faces in securing its water resources.

🌧️ In 2020 and 2021, the islands experienced a period of reduced rainfall, highlighting the potential vulnerability of the water supply, particularly in the context of future climate change.

👉This situation prompted a broader project, developed with the support of the Green Overseas Programme, aimed at:
- better understanding the water resources currently available,
- identifying when and under which conditions shortages could occur,
- and anticipating future needs.

Combining climate change projections and population growth, experts are now exploring several solutions to strengthen water security:
✔️ Developing alternative catchment areas
✔️ Considering additional boreholes
✔️ Exploring seawater desalination

When climate change transforms glaciers, entire ecosystems are put at risk.

John Clorley, Director of Strategy and Policy and Principal Immigration Officer at the Government of South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands, shares the major challenges his territory is facing: significant glacial retreat and its consequences for freshwater habitats, marine ecosystems, and ultimately fisheries and tourism.

South Georgia is home to 95% of the world’s Antarctic fur seal population — nearly 7 million individuals — as well as exceptional wildlife that makes the island globally renowned.

In the face of these changes, the priority is clear: invest in scientific research, anticipate shifts in natural systems, and share this data with the wider world.

As John highlights, while these territories cannot solve global climate change alone, they can document its impacts and contribute to global awareness.

Comment produire de l’eau potable sur une île aux ressources limitées ?

Dans cette interview sur l'innovation dans le domaine de la production aquifère à Saint-Barthélémy, Sylvère Gréaux revient sur une initiative structurante pour l’île : valoriser les déchets pour produire de l’eau potable.

♻️ Le principe est simple :

1) Les déchets sont brûlés dans l’usine d’incinération.
2) La chaleur récupérée permet de chauffer l’eau utilisée dans le processus de production d’eau potable.

Résultat :

✔️ Une production nécessitant 3 fois moins d’électricité que l’osmose inverse
✔️ Une réduction de la dépendance énergétique
✔️ Moins de pression sur la centrale EDF locale
✔️ Et donc, une meilleure marge de manœuvre pour répondre aux autres besoins de l’île

Dans cette courte interview, Johan LETANG (chargé de mission adaptation au changement climatique en Polynésie française) explique les raisons de sa participation à l’atelier du Programme Green Overseas à la Barbade.

Un sujet en particulier a retenu son attention : 💧 la recharge des aquifères avec des eaux traitées, une pratique déjà mise en œuvre dans certains territoires.

En Polynésie française, cette solution n’est aujourd’hui pas autorisée. Les échanges avec d’autres îles permettent donc de mieux comprendre :
• les normes utilisées
• les cadres réglementaires existants
• et les conditions nécessaires pour envisager des approches similaires sur d'autres territoires.

Un exemple concret de l’importance du partage d’expérience entre territoires insulaires confrontés à des défis communs.

🎥 Voices from the Barbados workshop

During each GO workshop, we take the opportunity to capture short interviews with participants from across the OCTs. These conversations help bring forward perspectives from the ground, highlight shared challenges, and encourage exchange between territories.

At the recent workshop held in Barbados two weeks ago, we spoke with Philip Kendall from Tristan da Cunha. His reflections underline growing concerns around the future of water resources and how climate-related events are increasingly affecting even the most remote territories.

Recent extreme weather events on the island have served as a reminder that even places historically considered stable are now facing new patterns and vulnerabilities. This reinforces the importance of exchanges like the Barbados workshop, where territories can share experiences, compare challenges, and explore solutions together.

One key takeaway from this conversation is the value of bringing all South Atlantic territories together in the same room — something that rarely happens, yet is essential for strengthening cooperation and resilience.

More interviews from the workshop coming soon.

💧 Final day of the GO Water Resilience Workshop in Barbados

The last day opened with a rich panel of presentations highlighting water challenges and solutions across diverse island territories:

• Tristan da Cunha – Philip Kendall shared how the world’s most remote inhabited island relies entirely on UV disinfection at the source, while facing risks such as landslides, seismic activity, pollution and climate change.
• French Polynesia – Johan LETANG presented the complexity of managing water resources across a fragmented multi-island territory and stressed the importance of hydrometric data collection.
• Anguilla – Telica Mussington explained how droughts, hurricanes and limited groundwater resources shape the island’s water strategy, with strong reliance on desalination, rainwater harvesting and household storage systems.
• Falkland Islands Government – Deborah Barlow highlighted the territory’s dependence on rainfall and the urgent need to strengthen monitoring systems and early warning mechanisms.

After the break, participants worked together to identify the 10 most relevant and replicable study cases that will feed into the future GO catalogue that will be soon added to the GO platform — a key step to support knowledge sharing across OCTs.

A warm thank you to Government of Barbados and the Barbados Water Authority for hosting this workshop, and to all participants and partners who contributed to its success. Special thanks to Murray Biedler, Juliette Fradet and Miléna Poncin from BRL Groupe Ingénierie for facilitating the workshop, and to Thibault Poupaert for capturing the week through his lens 📸

🌊 The workshop continues with flood management insights and shared island solutions

The day began with a field visit in the Wider Holetown watershed in Barbados, where Charles Yearwood BSc. (Hons), MSc. from the Drainage Division (Ministry of Transport and Works) guided participants through flood management infrastructure—from the hills to the coast—including a retention basin and a green belt acting as a buffer zone, showcasing the combination of nature-based and engineered solutions.

In the afternoon, presentations highlighted shared challenges and innovative responses across territories:
• The Caribbean Water and Wastewater Association (CWWA) presented the Regional Strategic Action Plan to strengthen climate resilience in the water sector.
• The British Virgin Islands shared the growing impact of the Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt on desalination and coastal activities, calling for coordinated regional action.
• Government of South Georgia & the South Sandwich Islands illustrated the rapid retreat of the Neumayer Glacier and its implications for biodiversity and fisheries.
• The Cayman Islands Government showcased the “Agro Park” water resilience project, a replicable model for controlled and affordable water use.
• Government Sint Eustatius presented water retention solutions in a context without surface water.
• A technical session by BRL Groupe explored the role of early warning systems in supporting public decision-making.

A day rich in practical learning, regional cooperation and shared commitment to resilient water management.
