AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Public Health & Safety: Dominica Meteorological Service warns of hazy skies and reduced air quality from rising Saharan dust, plus lingering moisture that may increase cloudiness tonight; people with asthma or allergies should take precautions, and communities prone to landslides and falling rocks should stay alert. Digital Health for Sickle Cell: Sickle Cell Cares Foundation (Dominica) launched SickleConnect, described as the Caribbean’s first digital health platform for people living with sickle cell disease, offering smartphone tools for managing care, virtual support, and an emergency alert feature. Health Systems Strengthening: PAHO donated 20 computer units (15 laptops, 5 desktops) to Dominica’s Ministry of Health to boost disease surveillance, health data management, and primary care reporting. Cancer Care Community: Dominica Cancer Society announced its AGM on June 27 at UWI Open Campus Dominica, focusing on programmes, support for patients and families, and prevention/early detection priorities. Biodiversity & Disease Control: DNCTF and the Caribbean Biodiversity Fund provided over US$93,000 for two projects—supporting efforts to contain lethal yellowing disease in the coconut sub-sector and restoring coral reefs in Soufriere. Climate Resilience: A US$5,000 contribution from the Bahamas Protected Areas Fund will fund drainage and slope stabilization work in Atkinson over three months. Tourism & Wellness (Local): Discover Dominica Authority launched “Summer the Nature Island Way,” with eight curated itineraries blending adventure, wellness, culture and nature-based experiences.
