This report provides guidance to policy and decision makers on holistic approaches to resilient services for water supply and sanitation (WSS) in the Caribbean, a high-risk region that struggles to manage natural disasters and other periodic shocks. WSS services are critical for societies everywhere. They should be predictable, robust, and able to come back online quickly following a disaster or shock. However, WSS services in the Caribbean are particularly vulnerable to shocks. Sea-level rise, land-use changes, demographic shifts, pandemics, and other factors can hamper service delivery throughout the region. To increase resilience in the sector, a water service provider needs to identify the threats and vulnerabilities and address those posing the greatest risks.

East of East: The Making of Greater El Monte, is an edited collection of thirty-one essays that trace the experience of a California community over three centuries, from eighteenth-century Spanish colonization to twenty-first century globalization. Employing traditional historical scholarship, oral history, creative nonfiction and original art, the book provides a radical new history of El Monte and South El Monte, showing how interdisciplinary and community-engaged scholarship can break new ground in public history. East of East tells stories that have been excluded from dominant historical narratives--stories that long survived only in the popular memory of residents, as well as narratives that have been almost completely buried and all but forgotten. Its cast of characters includes white vigilantes, Mexican anarchists, Japanese farmers, labor organizers, civil rights pioneers, and punk rockers, as well as the ordinary and unnamed youth who generated a vibrant local culture at dances and dive bars.
