AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Cancer Care Update: Antigua and Barbuda’s long-delayed cancer treatment centre is expected to start offering services in the fall, with key radiation specialists already identified, but officials still haven’t confirmed a firm opening date or patient costs. Mental Health Reform: The Health Ministry received findings from a nationwide consultation with children and adolescents on mental health care and proposed legislation, with about 1,000 young people surveyed and 300 more in focus groups, feeding into rights-based reform. Youth Fitness & Movement: An explorer’s message to young people—“get off their phones and move”—highlights the role of discipline and starting small, echoing broader wellness themes. Climate & Health Resilience: Minister Michael Joseph pushed for stronger Caribbean representation in global climate mobility talks, arguing that resilience and “the right to stay” must be community-led and properly financed. Food Security: Agriculture updates point to sweet potato projects with improved planting materials, training, and pest management to strengthen nutrition and climate resilience. Road Safety Call: A lawmaker urged breathalyzer testing at accident scenes to close gaps when alcohol may be involved. Wellness Event: OECS invites the public to a fun walk in Antigua for community wellness and regional unity.
