Meanwhile, Minister Todd told the Non-Resident Ambassador – Designate that Guyana is committed to fostering stronger bilateral relations and partnership with Italy in several priority areas including health, education, and security.
According to the release, Todd said that Italy and the European Union remain valuable partners to Guyana and CARICOM. In response, Nicoletti alluded to several technical cooperation initiatives including Italy’s role in supporting the Agri-Food Systems agenda of CARICOM towards reducing the Region’s food import bill by 25 percent by 2025.
The CARICOM Agri-Food Systems Agenda is led by President Mohamed Irfaan Ali. The current implementation of the agenda gives special attention to priority crops and products in Member States to achieve this target.
