Toward a More Inclusive Post-COVID Recovery: A Tool to Further the Caribbean Policy Agenda Année de publication: 2022 Auteur: Anna Kasafi Perkins | Stacy Richards-Kennedy | Don Marshall | R. Clive Landis Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO Kingston | University of the West Indies The Caribbean is a grouping of islands and low-lying coastal countries of sovereign nations and dependent territories that share a history of colonialism and coloniality,1 which has shaped and continues to shape their “complex mix of political and administrative structures”. Indeed, Caribbean nations experience a “paradoxical, type of political sovereignty and experience of development”. All Caribbean nations have been classified by the United Nations as Small Island Developing States (SIDS), taking account of “the peculiar social, economic and environmental vulnerabilities” they experience. Caribbean SIDS are highly indebted and vulnerable to climate change, hurricanes and other natural hazards. At the same time, theirs is a paradoxical existence as their vulnerabilities place them alongside least developed countries, in spite of some being designated by the World Bank as high or middle-income countries. Such classification limits access to the international financing needed towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.
Case Studies in Action: Youth Empowerment for a Peaceful Caribbean Année de publication: 2024 Auteur: Gizem Kilinç Auteur institutionnel: UNESCO Kingston This compilation, titled “Case Studies in Action: Youth Empowerment for a Peaceful Caribbean” presents fourteen concise case studies highlighting (sub-)regional, national, and local initiatives that contribute to the operationalisation of the Youth, Peace, and Security (YPS) agenda. It features a combination of initiatives led by government, regional organisations, the United Nations, youth organisations, civil society, and multi-stakeholder groups across the Dutch and English-speaking Caribbean. The primary objective of this overview is to enrich the knowledge base on meaningful youth engagement in peace and security issues within the region, shedding light on successful approaches, obstacles encountered, and lessons learned. Organised into five sections aligned with the pillars of the YPS agenda—prevention, protection, disengagement and reintegration, partnership, and participation—the case studies are accompanied by an introduction and a summary of recommendations.
