We continued strenuous efforts, including through the interventions of the CARICOM-appointed Eminent Persons Group (EPG), and international advocacy, to find solutions to the multi-dimensional crisis in Haiti and for a return to peace and stability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To date, five consultations with stakeholders have been undertaken, the last yielding a Framework Agreement to\u00a0provide a transitional governance arrangement to take the troubled country to free and fair elections.\u00a0\u00a0Stakeholders achieved consensus on several aspects of the draft Framework and have agreed to continue discussions.\u00a0\u00a0Efforts have been further bolstered with the pledge of support from several\u00a0Member States to the Multinational Security Support (MNSS) mission which the UN Security Council has approved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our efforts to transition to renewable energy and increase energy efficiency were bolstered with the provision of $20 million in funding from USAID to Caribbean companies with financial and technical assistance and business development services, through the Caribbean Climate Investment Program.\u00a0 A Prime Ministerial Sub-Committee (PMSC) on Climate Change and the Climate Finance Agenda, with the support of the relevant technical experts and institutions, now provides coordination and oversight of the preparation for international climate change and climate finance negotiations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We continued to pursue targeted regional and international partnerships.\u00a0 A key outcome of these interactions has been the opening of the CARICOM headquarters of the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) in Barbados,\u00a0<strong>to expand Africa-Caribbean trade and investment relations in\u00a0<\/strong>critical economic sectors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenges and achievements of the past year have clearly indicated that acting in concert is our surest way of making the local, regional and international impact that is needed to\u00a0deepen the CARICOM integration movement.\u00a0\u00a0In this regard, I extend sincere gratitude to my colleague Heads of Government, to leaders across the length and breadth of the Community, and to the staff members of the CARICOM Secretariat.\u00a0 Your contributions have helped to further our mandate of a Caribbean Community of which we can be proud.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My fellow CARICOM citizens, it is with collective will and action that we will achieve our goal of a prosperous, healthy and safe\u00a0<em>\u201cCommunity for All\u201d.<\/em>\u00a0 Let us recommit to pursuing that goal in the coming year.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">May you have a happy and peaceful end to 2023, and a New Year of success and prosperity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Our Community made steady progress to advance our integration movement in 2023.\u00a0 A highpoint of the year were the joyous celebrations across the Community for the Golden Jubilee Anniversary of the signing of the original Treaty of Chaguaramas.\u00a0 Under the&#8230;","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":278214,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[286,77,235,9,14],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-314253","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-governance","category-homepage","category-homepage-carousel","category-news","category-regional"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
