Construction of a hurricane-resistant small ruminant shelter, St. Lucia

This intervention facilitated the construction of an affordable, simple and practical small ruminant housing which incorporates design features which seek to minimize structural damage resulting from strong winds, minimize disease risks and provide facilities for rain water harvesting and storage. The installment of hurricane clamps and bolts as part of the design features helps to reinforce the roofs and foundations of their structures or existing structures can also be retrofitted.
