🌎🇰🇾 Premier Hon. Juliana O’Connor-Connolly attended the 48th Regular Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of CARICOM in Barbados, engaging in key discussions with regional and international leaders on strengthening partnerships in education, climate resiliency, and sustainable development.

Following productive talks with leaders including UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the Premier shared, “The region continues to demonstrate resiliency and agility to adapt in the face of worldwide change. Today’s meetings demonstrate the importance of exploring opportunities for strengthening global partnerships.”

Emphasising the participation of young leaders at the summit, the Premier highlighted Cayman’s representation through Vanessa Burke, the first Caymanian to serve as Dean of CARICOM’s Youth Ambassador Programme. She stated, “It is inspiring to see our young people actively involved at the highest level. Their voices and perspectives are crucial in shaping the future of our region.”

Reflecting on the event, Premier O’Connor-Connolly said, “For our common problems, there are common solutions. The forging of strategic partnerships internationally and with Associate Members which now include French and Dutch Caribbean islands is encouraging.”
