I note with pride the strategic objectives of CDB’s 2020-2024 Strategic Plan to build triple bottom line sustainability and resilience – social, economic and environmental and will work with Bank to this end.


COVID-19 has reminded us that we are our brothers’ keeper in that spirit. I look forward to regular engagement with the bank on the various initiatives to achieve broad-base sustainability, consistent with the carrying capacities of the various jurisdictions.


I would like to record thanks to our outgoing chair for her tenacious leadership, spirit of solidarity, and deep appreciation for our common vulnerabilities and the need to collaborate to find uniquely Caribbean solutions.”
