Minister urges world leaders to rekindle spirit of fairness #CaribbeanBroadcastingCorporation

Speaking at the High-Level Roundtable Two of the World Summit for Social Development in Qatar, Minister Humphrey warned that the world once again stands at a dangerous crossroads between power and justice.

He reflected on the Caribbean’s progress and ongoing challenges in achieving the three core pillars of the Copenhagen Declaration.

Minister Humphrey noted that while poverty in the Caribbean fell from fifty-three percent in 1999 to twenty-eight percent by 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic reversed many of those gains.
