🚨 Big News for Saint Lucia! 🚨

After months of advocacy for a National Food Systems Pathway, Minister of Agriculture Hon. Alfred Prospere has expressed interest in ensuring Saint Lucia develops and publishes its pathway ahead of the 2nd UN Food Systems Summit Stocktaking Moment (UNFSS+4) in July 2025.

As CEO of Strategy Reloaded and a member of the UN Food Coordination Hub’s LAC Young Leaders, I will be attending the Youth Global Conference in May 2025, leading discussions on food security, sustainability, and resilience. This is a historic step for our nation, as we work to develop a clear plan for our food system that prioritizes agriculture, climate resilience, and food security.

"Saint Lucia should have been leading food system transformation, but in a time of global food uncertainty, I am pleased that we are now taking steps to play our part." - David Aaron Henry

This initiative will require a national consultation, where input from farmers, policymakers, youth, businesses, and communities will help shape the roadmap for a stronger, more resilient food system.

Let’s keep the momentum going! Saint Lucia must ensure its place in the global conversation on sustainable food systems. 🌱💡🇱🇨

I am deeply honored to have been nominated for the Norman Borlaug Award for Field Research and Application, a recognition that celebrates innovation and impact in addressing global food security. Though the award was ultimately granted to the outstanding Dr. Dennis Beesigamukama of Uganda, I remain grateful for the journey, the connections, and the trust placed in me.

I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the following:

🔹 UNDP Connect4Climate Youth4Climate 🌱 – Thank you for opening doors of recognition for our Vetiver Smart Farms initiative, allowing our work in regenerative agriculture to gain visibility.

🔹 World Food Prize Foundation 🏆 – Thank you for reaching out, recognizing my efforts, and encouraging me to apply for the Norman Borlaug Field Researcher Prize. I am humbled by the incredible work this prize supports, especially in honoring innovators under 40 who tackle food security challenges. I look forward to your support and encouragement on your youth initiatives.

🔹 The Vetiver Network International (TVNI) group 🌾 – Your distinguished recommendation letter highlighted our achievements and underscored our mission to elevate vetiver technology to the global stage, echoing the spirit of Dr. Norman Borlaug's legacy.

🔹 Strategy Reloaded Team 💼 – Your unwavering support drives me to confront the pressing societal challenges of our time through meaningful youth engagement and action. I am fortunate to have such a committed team by my side.

🎓 Exciting News After One Year Of Preparing I Am Ready! 🎓

I am thrilled to share that I've recently earned my Certificate of Achievement in Strategy Consulting from the University of the West of England! 🌟 This journey has been filled with growth, knowledge, and a passion for making a positive impact.

Now, I'm on a mission to pay it forward! 🌍 I believe that empowering the next generation of young entrepreneurs is crucial for the prosperity of Saint Lucia. 🚀
🔍 I am actively seeking FULL FUNDING for a comprehensive program that will equip these aspiring entrepreneurs with the skills and insights into the world of strategy consulting. 🌐

🌟 Why is this important? Because the youth are the backbone of our economy, and it's time to bridge the gap left by the educational system. Many young talents in Saint Lucia deserve the opportunity to thrive as innovators and job creators, breaking the cycle of job seeking.

💡 My vision is to create a fully funded program that goes beyond textbooks, providing hands-on experience and mentorship. Together, we can shape a future where the youth lead with innovation, resilience, and strategic thinking.

🌈 Join me in this mission! If you know of potential sponsors, investors, or organizations that share the belief in empowering young entrepreneurs, please connect us. Let's make a positive impact together! 🤝
