]]> The Sandy Point Agricultural Society Ltd in partnership with Republic Bank (EC) Limited (RBEC), continues to make strides in youth empowerment through agriculture with the Youth in Agriculture Farm School.  Designed to equip young people with essential farming skills while promoting food security and economic sustainability in St. Kitts and Nevis, this initiative officially launched this year with an opening ceremony at the Liberation Farm in Sandy Point. 

Mr. Lionel Stevens, President of the Sandy Point Agricultural Cooperative Society, expressed gratitude to RBEC for choosing to support this project as part of their Power to Make a Difference (PMAD) Programme and for making them an official PMAD partner.  

“We are embarking on a youth in agriculture initiative. We started last summer, but with Republic Bank now on board, we can give it a greater boost.” said Mr. Stevens.  “Every other Saturday, we will be here engaging young people, starting as young as four years old, in all aspects of agriculture. From land preparation and sowing of seeds to transplanting, caring, harvesting, post harvesting, agro-processing, all the techniques, we will teach them all the skills to become well-rounded agropreneurs.” 

As part of the programme, eighty students will gain hands-on experience in growing watermelon, cabbage, sweet pepper, cucumber, cauliflower, and broccoli. Sales from the harvest will fund future cohorts, creating a self-sustaining model that ensures long-term impact. 

“Food security is a critical issue, with our nation’s high food import bill highlighting the need for local agricultural initiatives,” said Mrs. Pamela Herbert-Daniel, Country Manager for Republic Bank St. Kitts and Nevis. “Through this programme, we are not only teaching students valuable skills but also investing in the future of our agricultural sector.” 

Additional contributions from Epic Agri Fusion, TDC Home and Building Depot, and the Department of Agriculture have further strengthened the initiative. 

The PMAD Programme is a cornerstone of RBEC’s corporate social responsibility efforts. This initiative embodies the Bank’s dedication to fostering sustainable development, empowering individuals, and uplifting entire communities in the East Caribbean. By investing in education, agriculture, and social services, RBEC aims to create lasting change and improve the quality of life for those in need.

]]> Poverty, unemployment and underemployment are pressing challenges in the Caribbean, affecting economic mobility, stability, and opportunities for young people. Although the region has made strides over the years, fragile economic growth and low-quality jobs are holding millions back. In 2023, despite decades of progress, 1 in 4 people still lived below the poverty line in the LAC region. Also prevalent is a high youth unemployment rate – in 2023, the youth unemployment rate in the Caribbean was at 24%. 

Labor market inclusion of women remains a consistent problem across the Caribbean with a 29% youth female unemployment rate in 2023. This has far-reaching implications, including barriers of entry in high-yield and productivity sectors, ultimately resulting in women having higher poverty and poorer human development index indicators.  

Addressing youth unemployment and poverty in the Caribbean requires a multi-faceted approach that includes investing in education and training, promoting economic diversification, supporting entrepreneurship, and implementing inclusive policies. This requires strong participation from youth, who are the strongest drivers of economic prosperity in the region. 

Keeping this in view, the World Bank invited Caribbean youth to participate in an essay competition on the topic of jobs and poverty, asking them to share their views, aspirations, and solutions.  

This event will bring together the top three winners, World Bank experts and the private sector to discuss these issues, providing a platform for youth perspectives to be heard, and discuss solutions.
