TRAINING WORKSHOP FOR MSMES ON CONTINUITY OF BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS VIS-À-VIS NATURAL DISASTERS

SELA will hold the “Training Workshop for MSMEs on continuity of business and operations vis-à-vis natural disasters”, together with Government of Belize, through the Belize Trade and Investment Development Service (BELTRAIDE), Export Belize and the Small Business Development Centre (SBDCBELIZE). This workshop aims to provide participants with a vision of the risks and vulnerabilities to which MSMEs and their suppliers of goods and services are exposed, and how an adverse event could affect the continuity of their business and operations; raise awareness about the need to adopt a methodology or guidelines for effective risk management in their business model, and to provide a strategy that facilitates the articulation and implementation of a programme on continuity of business and operations in case of disasters; and provide MSMEs with practical knowledge that allows them to apply the rules and standards for continuity of business and operations within their enterprises.
