Day 1 of the DRM Authority’s National Disaster Readiness Exercise (NDRX) kicked off today! We introduced ESFs and ensured all systems are disaster-ready! #NDRX2025 #DisasterPreparedness #BahamasStrong

The Disaster Preparedness Fund is a proactive step to ensure our communities are ready when it matters most. As Hon. Leon Lundy reminds us: “The Disaster Preparedness Fund ensures we are not reacting in panic, but preparing in purpose.” #DisasterPreparedness #CommunitySafety

From June to August 2025, the National Disaster Readiness Exercise (NDRX) will put our plans to the test across Inagua, Andros, Cat Island, Exuma, and Abaco. These aren’t rehearsals — they are reality checks to ensure we are truly ready when it counts. #NDRX2025

Exciting news! Hon. Leon Lundy is the new Chairman of CDEMA for 2025-2026, guiding vital disaster management policies in the Caribbean. Congrats, Minister Lundy! 🎉 #CDEMA #Leadership #DisasterManagement
