AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Health & Workforce Readiness: Montserrat’s Ministry of Health says depressive and psychotic disorders are the top diagnoses among people using mental health services, based on a six-year review (2020–2026) covering 405 patients and 413 illness episodes, with a 12.7% rise in new presentations in the latest three-year period and more young people (10–19) now being formally assessed after a child and adolescent psychologist role. Health Research to Policy: The same Annual Research Day highlighted evidence-based work on chronic disease and mental health, including hypertension and diabetes self-management results, while noting ongoing pressure from depression, psychotic disorders, and prostate-related conditions. National Planning & Resilience: Government of Montserrat is gathering input from residents and the diaspora to draft a 25-year Sustainable Development Strategy and National Development Plan (2026–2050), with staged five-year implementation horizons and a mid-course review to keep priorities aligned with changing conditions. Agriculture & Biosecurity: SHIC, with FFAR co-funding, awarded six projects totaling $719,415 to strengthen swine disease monitoring and mitigation, including better African swine fever detection tools and new diagnostic sample approaches. Regional Business & Connectivity: OECS leaders continue pushing for practical regional solutions—Antigua and Barbuda renewed calls for an OECS-owned regional airline to cut delays and cancellations, while OECS also welcomed Aisha Maina as Strategic Advisor for Africa-Caribbean cooperation. Entrepreneurship Spotlight: Montserrat’s inaugural PRIME Business Awards and Gala celebrated local business growth across categories from export excellence to green business and innovation.
