AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Education Reform: Antigua and Barbuda has rolled out universal free education from early childhood through university, with government covering tuition fees for selected CXC subjects and costs at the UWI Five Islands Campus as the new term begins. Local Governance & Justice: Prime Minister Gaston Browne has escalated his feud with the regional judiciary, questioning why women judges didn’t speak out over lenient sentences in sexual violence cases and renewing threats tied to sentencing decisions. Public Safety & Accountability: Antigua is moving to publish a sex offenders registry for public access, reigniting debate about child protection and whether other territories like the BVI should follow. Tourism & Culture: Antigua and Barbuda brought Carnival energy to Brooklyn’s West Indian American Day Parade, using major U.S. TV exposure to build hype for Antigua Carnival’s 70th anniversary. Regional Spotlight (Cricket): Cricket West Indies appointed New Zealand coach Bob Carter as batting consultant, aiming to strengthen men’s, women’s and youth batting ahead of major 2027 tournaments. Community Support: CIBC Caribbean and UWI Lifelong Learning Unit donated 10 computers to His Majesty’s Prison, expanding IT and education access for inmates. Disability Inclusion: A UN-backed Caribbean HireAbility campaign recognized Joshuanette Francis of Antigua and Barbuda among advocates pushing disability-inclusive employment. Immigration Watch: U.S. visitor visa issuances to Antigua and Barbuda nationals reportedly fell to zero in early 2026 after new restrictions took effect. Diplomacy Ahead of CHOGM: Foreign Minister Chet Greene met UK officials and Commonwealth leaders to review CHOGM 2026 readiness and priorities.
