“I am so pleased that we have a total of 4 Dominicans participating in the Canada Caribbean Emerging Leaders Dialogue. I know they will make use of this unique opportunity and promote our country well. I am delighted that we have a large Dominican delegation involved in this programme,” – country host for Dominica and co-lead of the Canada Caribbean Emerging Leaders Dialogue, Rianna Patterson, expresses.
An opening plenary will be held in Toronto, Ontario, with all 100 participants who will have the opportunity to hear from leaders across government, industry, education, and civil society.
Each tour will travel to one Caribbean country to explore one of the six sub-themes, with the 7th group exploring the umbrella conference theme. Tour countries include the Bahamas, Barbados, Bermuda, Grenada, Guyana, Jamaica and Dominica. Dominica is among the islands that delegates will visit from May 24th to May 29th under the theme of Social Impact and Sustainable Development.
The diverse participants selected from across Canada and the Caribbean will have first-hand exposure to new peer-to-peer interactive learning experiences, provoking dialogue across real-time, complex issues, so that the quality and relevance of their decision-making is improved.
“It has been an honour to put together this trip, and I would like to thank the local civil society, businesses and entrepreneurs who have stepped up to support this cause,” said Ms.Patterson
