LONDON, April 3 (Bernama-BUSINESS WIRE) -- Last week, 52 families from the Petite Savanne community on the Caribbean island of Dominica received keys to their new homes in the Bellevue Chopin region. This is part of Dominica’s Housing Revolution – an initiative that aims to provide affordable and climate-resilient homes to a great deal of the population. The handing over ceremony took place on Tuesday, March 26th, and was headed by Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit.
The scheme supports families displaced by Storm Erika in 2015. Last December, 38 families from the Petite Savanne community were the first ones to benefit from the resettlement project in Bellevue Chopin. An additional 190 homes are expected to be distributed amongst residents from Petite Savanne with another 110 homes dispersed across the island. Several thousands of Dominicans will move into new, modern homes this year as part of the larger Housing Revolution, funded entirely by Dominica’s world-leading Citizenship by Investment (CBI) Programme.
