Hurricane Melissa, a powerful Category 5 storm posing a serious threat to the lives and livelihoods of Jamaicans, made landfall earlier this week carving a destructive path across the country. IAPH has written to the Port Authority of Jamaica, an IAPH member, to express its solidarity. In the aftermath of the storm, recovery will entail a substantial relief effort, and the Government of Jamaica has rolled out an official website to streamline this undertaking.
