PAHO/WHO Leadership in the Caribbean: Dr. Eva Jané Llopis has started as PAHO/WHO Representative for Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean Countries, bringing 25 years of public health experience and a mandate to support governments and health ministries across the region—covering Barbados, OECS states, UK territories, and the French Caribbean departments including French Guiana.

Local Youth Sports (Wellness Angle): In the Caribbean Football Union Challenge Series, Trinidad and Tobago Under-14 beat French Guiana 4-1 in a must-win match, with French Guiana scoring early—another reminder of how youth sport keeps health and community energy moving.
