Caricom Agri-Food Systems Agenda

The CARICOM E-Agriculture Strategy is a key component of the flagship 25x2025+5 initiative, aimed at modernizing the regional agricultural sector through digital innovation, including artificial intelligence, mobile platforms, and smart farming tools to boost productivity, strengthen climate resilience, and expand market access. The strategy is built on six pillars: rural connectivity, precision agriculture, digital financial services, digital skills, e-commerce, and policy and governance frameworks. It focuses specifically on youth, women, and agri-entrepreneurs, seeking to position agriculture as a modern, innovative, and attractive sector across the Caribbean region.

The CDM Strategy 2014-2024 is a regional strategic framework that represents a paradigm shift from a reactive to an anticipatory approach to disaster management. Its core objective is the integration of disaster management considerations into the development planning and decision-making process of CDEMA’s Participating States. It addresses all hazards and all phases of the disaster cycle: prevention, mitigation, preparedness, response, recovery, and rehabilitation
