AGP Executive Report

Last update: 26 minutes ago

Hurricane Preparedness: PM Roosevelt Skerrit urged Dominicans to prepare early for the 2026 Atlantic Hurricane Season, saying NEPO has inspected shelters, reviewed supplies, and coordinated response plans—while stressing preparedness is a shared responsibility. Protected Areas & Eco-Tourism: The Ministry of Environment has started demarcating Morne Diablotin National Park boundaries and setting up a buffer zone under the GEF/World Bank LETBP project to strengthen conservation and support sustainable community use. Biodiversity Funding: Dominica National Conservation Trust Fund awarded US$103,000 for biodiversity and ecosystem protection, including a rapid response to Lethal Yellowing Disease to protect coastal coconut ecosystems and a coral reef restoration effort in Soufriere. Coconut Threat Watch: Plant Protection and Quarantine warned Lethal Yellowing Disease remains a serious risk, with over 12,000 coconut trees destroyed to contain spread, especially around Woodford Hill. Climate Adaptation Investment: Skerrit announced DOMCREP, a US$70.2m Green Climate Fund-backed resilience project supporting farmers with climate-smart tech, irrigation, greenhouses, and improved water security. Regional Integration: A commentary on OECS free movement weighs its disaster and labour-mobility benefits against today’s economic turbulence. Regional Services Training: OECS Commission says Antigua and Barbuda will host a specialised services sector training programme (June 29–July 2) to boost resilience and competitiveness across member states. Education & Skills: Thirty secondary teachers completed ACT in Mathematics Cohort 2, supported by UWI Mona and the Commonwealth of Learning, to strengthen math teaching and classroom technology use.
