Food 🍲 is more than just sustenance; it is at the heart of our culture. Isn't it time we ensure that every Caribbean community has the right to sustainable food and a healthy planet?

Genesis grew up enjoying her grandmother’s garden 🌱, something that connected her with the power of nature and ancestral wisdom. She loves how traditional Caribbean foods bring us together, like ackee, yucca, ducuna, guava jelly, callaloo, and wants to work to protect our food systems, especially as communities face climate injustice and land dispossession.

She believes in allowing those most directly affected by the climate crisis to play a significant role in advancing climate policies and having direct access to climate finance to repair harm.

✊ She advocates for establishing and supporting community-based renewable energy and sustainable food production projects, particularly solar power ☀️installations for farms and households, to protect farmers, environmental stewards, and food systems in Antigua & Barbuda 🇦🇬 and the greater Caribbean.
