Earlier this year, President Dr Mohamed Irfaan Ali published a policy brief in his book “Achieving Global Food Security. The Caribbean Experience and Beyond.” It deserves wide attention and should be the subject of a policy discussion throughout the CARICOM, and especially in Guyana – because of policy proposals and commitments by Guyana.
It is to be appreciated that President Ali has arranged for the publication of the book, which draws on the technical expertise of officials in Guyana and the CARICOM. The book is essentially a broad policy brief in the crucial area of food security, and it would be good to have similar policy briefs in key areas of governance, including one on nation-building in Guyana. One would also encourage the discussion of such policy briefs, including the present one, in Parliament.
