Decolonisation & Reparations: CARICOM is pushing a “Ten Point Plan” urging Britain to relinquish territories, including Bermuda, as part of reparatory justice—shared with UK MPs in London and framed as a fix for economic constraints tied to colonial constitutional arrangements. Regional Security (Martinique): At an Antilles-Guyane cooperation and security conference in Martinique, Dominica’s Roosevelt Skerrit called for security to be treated as a whole system—linking maritime protection, cybersecurity, energy and food security, and climate resilience rather than just policing. Food & Health (Pesticides): New FAO-based rankings highlight Saint Lucia as sixth globally for pesticide use intensity (27.6 kg per hectare of cropland), raising public and environmental health concerns; regional research links higher pesticide exposure to higher prostate and blood cancer risks. Education (Martinique & France): France’s 2026 baccalaureate pass rate fell to 91.4% after resits, with fewer distinctions under a new grading system that weights final exams more heavily. Logistics (OECS): A concept note backs turning Saint Lucia’s Hewanorra airport into an OECS air cargo distribution hub to speed regional deliveries. CARICOM Governance: CARICOM leaders voted to refer the disputed renewal of interim SG Carla Barnett’s appointment to the Caribbean Court of Justice.
