AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

World Cup ripple effects: Curacao’s “miracle” qualification story is tied to a 2016 shift that opened the door to dual-national recruitment—now the tournament’s bigger question is whether hotels will actually cash in, with early signs of weaker match-day bookings than expected. Fertility and families: Jamaica is moving to build a National Fertility and Family Support Strategy as birth rates fall, with a taskforce aimed at targets by 2030. Public health accountability: Health Minister Christopher Tufton says sanctions are coming for mismanagement and reporting failures across the public health system. AI readiness push: A new SALISES study finds only 6% of Jamaicans have formal AI training, urging wider involvement. Culture debate: The “slackness” discussion around the Hill & Gully riddim is reigniting, with voices arguing it’s really about cultural memory, not just morality. Safety on the ground: Jamaica is stepping up helmet safety through stakeholder training to keep substandard gear out at ports.
