Action-oriented Caricom Youth Ambassador is trainee statesman/doctor

Vishal Joseph

At age 25, Vishal Joseph can be seen as an old head, as while this trainee doctor has youth on his side, his outlook on life is far beyond his age and he is action-oriented as well.

He has started three businesses, has been working in politics and youth advocacy and is in his final year of medical studies. Then there is his volunteerism; he has formed Bookworm, an organisation through which he seeks to have children ‘eat’ books through ardent reading.

In a sit down with the Sunday Stabroek, the Caricom Youth Ambassador shared his passions (and they are many) but what most was intriguing about him is the fact that he cares for his country and shows this through his actions.
