AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Sickle Cell Care: Dominica-based Sickle Cell Cares Foundation launched SickleConnect, the Caribbean’s first digital health platform for people living with Sickle Cell Disease, offering smartphone tools, a 30-day clinical summary, virtual support, and an emergency location alert. Tourism & Wellness: Discover Dominica Authority rolled out “Summer the Nature Island Way,” eight curated itineraries (multi-day trips and full-day tours) designed to encourage longer stays and deeper community exploration across adventure, wellness, romance, and culture. Climate Resilience: DNCTF confirmed US$5,000 for Atkinson drainage and slope stabilization, with French drains, soil works, and equipment planned over three months. Biodiversity Funding: Dominica received US$93,000 for two biodiversity projects—Lethal Yellowing disease response in the coconut sub-sector and coral reef restoration in Soufrière—plus technical support under the Caribbean Biodiversity Fund. Regional Health Cooperation: OECS leaders opened the 78th Authority Meeting in Antigua, with priorities including health cooperation, digital transformation, and climate resilience. Local Health Governance: Dominica Cancer Society announced its AGM on June 27 at UWI Open Campus Dominica, focusing on programmes, finances, and next-year priorities. Public Health Policy: PAHO reports say health taxes on alcohol and sugar-sweetened beverages in the Americas remain too low to curb consumption and prevent noncommunicable diseases.
