Dominica Unveils Ambitious 2026 Development Plan: Transformative Projects to Boost Economy and Sustainability

Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit has outlined his 2026 priorities for Dominica, focusing on delivering transformative projects that will propel the island nation towards a brighter economic future. Located at the crossroads of the Caribbean and South America, Dominica has long been a strategic hub in the region.

The government's priorities reflect this focus on resilience, with major infrastructure projects designed to enhance economic growth, improve living standards, and boost the island's international profile. Key projects include the construction of a new airport, geothermal energy development, a cable car system, and port expansion.

Dominica has positioned itself as a champion of sustainable development, launching its Climate-Resilient Development Strategy in 2014. The strategy is built on three pillars: renewable energy, green infrastructure, and climate-resilient agriculture. Recent developments in Dominica reflect the government's commitment to this vision, including the installation of several solar farms and wind turbines.

Global trends are also influencing Dominica's development priorities, with a focus on sustainable development and climate resilience driving the expansion of clean energy sources and infrastructure projects.
