Director of Human and Social Development at the CARICOM Secretariat, Ms Helen Royer, advocates for an inclusive and strategic approach to effectively respond to the emerging challenges faced by the Region’s education system, including the gaps resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
"So today, as we discuss the strategic actions that we will take to Strengthen the Region’s Education System, I encourage you to see the Caribbean Community as One People. As we review the CARICOM Human Resource Development 2030 Strategy, we do so knowing that we are on One Journey – even if we are at different points. And when we look at transforming education in the Region, we do so against the backdrop of shaping One prosperous common Future for all.”
"World Food Day provides us with a unique opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that every person in the CARICOM Region has the right to food.
"CARICOM recognises the Hand-in-Hand Initiative as a beneficial vehicle in supporting the removal of barriers to agricultural development.
This crucial effort is poised to transform how the people of the Caribbean Community access instructional programmes or courses that focus on the skills required for a specific job function or trade.
