AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Food Policy & Child Health: Healthy Caribbean Coalition youth and civil society groups are pushing for a ban on ultra-processed food marketing around schools, warning that constant exposure shapes preferences and fuels childhood obesity and early non-communicable disease risk. Mental Health Workforce: Grenada is starting a 6-month specialised training for 10 orderlies at Mt Gay Psychiatric Hospital, with EC$81,600 for the programme and EC$42,000 in stipends, aiming to strengthen frontline support for vulnerable patients. Tourism Health Security: CARPHA’s Regional Tourism and Health Programme has launched in Grenada to improve surveillance, early warning, and coordinated response to tourism-related public health events—positioning health readiness as part of destination competitiveness. Medicines Access (Regional): PAHO and OECS-PPS opened a joint workshop focused on sustained access to safe, effective essential medicines and health technologies across Eastern Caribbean small island states. Community Health & Environment (Woodford): Two Grenada community groups say Woodford industrial activity raises public health and environmental governance concerns, including claims about stop orders and missing planning and environmental approvals. Public Health & Equity (Menstrual Health): A Grenada-linked report highlights how many people with a uterus can’t afford menstrual products, linking the gap to preventable infections, missed school/work, and persistent health inequities. Eye Health: A Grenada-area optometrist story underscores that eye exams can help detect diabetes and high blood pressure earlier, not just vision problems.
