JASON AUDAIN PHOTOGRAPHER, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO
“First thing, get crime under control. Then I’d try to
get youths involved in building the country, because
that’s the only way for them to appreciate it. I’d
change the way the schools teach, for example, to
give kids actual life skills.”
KAREN DEFREITAS
FASHION DESIGNER AT SOKA, ST VINCENT & THE GRENADINES
“I’D MAKE IT A DAY OF WELLNESS. IMAGINE
A DAY OF MEDITATION, PRAYER, YOGA, SELF-
LOVE AND VOLUNTEERING; A DAY WITH
LOVED ONES; A DAY IN NATURE. WE NEED
LOVE, GRACE AND COMPASSION FOR EACH
OTHER, ESPECIALLY IN THIS RAT RACE.”
BLOSSOM PAUL-MITCHELL
ACCOUNTANT, ST LUCIA
“I’d focus on gun control and
improving the mental health of
young people: I would restrict
retailers from selling weapons to
civilians and encourage the youth
to become more sociable outside
of social media through selfesteem
building programmes.”
SHAWN MAILE
CO-OWNER OF TREK
TOURS, ANTIGUA
& BARBUDA
“I would lobby world leaders
to take more drastic action on
climate change. Then I’d travel
to Antigua to go hiking and
enjoy the views from the
top of the island.”
