Oct 09, 2013

GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC - Guyana’s Minister of Human Services and Social Security, Jennifer Webster, says women’s empowerment must be seen as a catalyst for growth and diversity of CARICOM economies.
She told delegates attending the Caribbean Week of Agriculture (CWA) that women’s empowerment is a catalyst for developing any society, and more so in the Caribbean.
“This is probably a great understatement, when we look at the contributions made by our women to development, especially as it relates to food and nutrition security.”
