Jun 28, 2013
CASTRIES, St. Lucia, - Prime Minister Kenny Anthony is proposing major changes to the regional educational system in order to reduce the growing problem of unemployment among young people.
He made the recommendations in an address to over 150 youth attending a regional conference hosted by the Caribbean Youth Empowerment Programme which highlights challenges facing youth at risk in the region, at a three day conference Thursday.
Anthony contends that training is not the sole responsibility of the state and cited the need to make better use of the available learning institutions.
