Last update: 11 hours ago

Tourism & Media: Caribbean Media Exchange (CMEx) has completed its 2026 Leadership Laureates roster, naming seven leaders across aviation, cruise, hospitality, sustainability, destination management and media ahead of the Dec. 6 awards in Miami. Health & Community: The AUB School of Medicine donated 100 digital stethoscopes to Barbados, supporting telemedicine and better monitoring for people in rural and underserved areas. Road Safety: Trident Insurance and the Ministry of Transport and Works are repainting pedestrian crossings near multiple schools and tackling potholes ahead of the new school term. Education Reform: Minister Chad Blackman has postponed the continuous assessment framework for secondary school placement, keeping the Common Entrance Exam in its current format for now and pushing the new model to a later start. Caregiving & Gender: Barbados is being urged to broaden caregiving beyond money, with a campaign encouraging men to take a bigger role in nurturing children and dependants. Culture & Diaspora: Actress and activist Jenifer Lewis is in Barbados for Emancipation celebrations, sharing a message of resilience and heritage. Public Safety: Police say escaped prisoner Tyrese Leroy Farrell (“Twin”) is back in custody after turning himself in. Local Agriculture: Farmers and vendors welcomed PM Mottley’s push for Massy Supermarkets to formalize contract buy-in arrangements, backed by $2m per quarter.
