The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Commission and the Government of Grenada hold a symposium focused on youth and women in agriculture, with a stated goal of strengthening regional food security and reducing reliance on imported food.
Across the coverage, organisers frame the event as a push for agricultural transformation that includes both participation and enabling conditions. Dominica News highlights calls for greater investment in young people and women as part of efforts to improve food systems. Now Grenada reports that the symposium concludes with a mandate for actionable deliverables, structured around four core targets.
According to Now Grenada, the four targets are institutionalisation, information sharing, land access, and structural inclusion. Together, the sources indicate the discussions move beyond awareness to outline specific areas for policy and program follow-through, aiming to expand meaningful roles for youth and women in agricultural activities across OECS member states.
