Last update: 11 hours ago

Barbados–Venezuela Cooperation: Prime Minister Mia Mottley met Venezuela’s acting president Delcy Rodríguez in Caracas and signed a joint declaration to deepen ties across energy, agriculture, fisheries, education, culture, and tourism, including technical training for Barbadians in land exploration and field recovery and a new working group to track implementation. Disaster Tech in Action: The same bilateral push included a tour of Barbados’ mobile field hospital in Guarenas, with the unit now treating 2,700+ patients and featuring triage, lab, pharmacy, imaging and a modular operating room. Health Tech Upgrade: Christ Church’s Leela Vida opened a 3D body composition and posture system positioned as a practical alternative to DEXA for monthly performance tracking. Public Health Leadership: Dr. Eva Jané Llopis assumed her role as PAHO/WHO Representative for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean, bringing 25 years of experience to strengthen resilient health systems. Energy Storage Push: Barbados is moving ahead with 125MW of battery storage to stabilise the grid and unlock constrained solar capacity. Cyber Safety for Youth: A digital forensics expert warned young people about malware risks from unverified links, stressing protection for phones and home networks. Biosecurity & Vector Control: UWI Cave Hill scientists are preparing field trials of a lethal ovitrap to reduce dengue without heavy reliance on chemicals. Customs Modernisation: Barbados Customs reported major border seizures and said about one-third of staff will retire soon, with more technology and retraining planned. Digital Business Growth: CDB and the Small Business Association of Barbados launched a regional initiative to help 150+ MSMEs adopt digital solutions and compete globally.
