With rising concerns about food insecurity, CARICOM Heads who met in Georgetown at an agricultural conference have listed four urgent priorities including tearing down trade barriers and scaling up regional transportation.
The “Agri-Investment Forum and Expo: Investing in Vision 25 by 2025”, took place at the Arthur Chung Conference Centre, Liliendaal, Georgetown on May 19 and 20 and was organised by Government of Guyana in collaboration with the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat.
It was attended by a representative group of CARICOM Heads of Government from Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Belize, Dominica, Guyana, Montserrat and Trinidad and Tobago and other high-level representatives from The Bahamas, Grenada, Jamaica, St Vincent and the Grenadines and Suriname, along with regional and international institutions.
