By Tony Best

“Caribbean Immigrants shouldn’t believe the Democrats are the only ones with the keys to the future.”

That statement from a Caribbean diplomat in Washington wasn’t seeking to put a case for the Republicans in the White House or on Capitol Hill. Far from it.

Although policy initiatives and programs already exist, there are opportunities to strengthen these through partnership with regional and international experts. The conference will provide a forum for local, regional, and international policy leaders, health care practitioners, and the community to examine key issues and strategies for improving the health of the OECS region.
