Ambassadors from the countries of the Caribbean Community (Caricom) reinforced their support for Guyana in the race for the director general position at the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), welcoming Muhammad Ibrahim, the candidate proposed by the country’s re-elected president, Mohamed Irfaan Ali, to Washington.

At the meeting with representatives of Caribbean countries, Ibrahim — an agronomist and institutional manager with more than three decades of experience leading agricultural projects in Central America and the Caribbean — emphasised that his priority at the helm of IICA will be to “promote and provide solutions for food security and nutrition, as well as foster resilience to disaster risk and water security. It is essential to advance the diversification of food systems with an emphasis on health and food security”
