GRENADA DAY 2010 IMAGES

 

GRENCAP United and the Consulate General of Grenada say “Thank You” for your tremendous turnout and support for the second Grenada Day celebration held at St. Andrew’s Playground in Brooklyn, NY, USA on Sunday July 18th.

As stated by the event chairperson, “The celebration is a very significant step in bringing our people together …. a day when we can come out and feel at home with each other in a land so far away from ours”. 

Of course none of this is possible without you, and you surely demonstrated by your vast turnout and lively participation, the great potential that abounds within the Grenadian community in the USA and we dare say - the world. So again, THANK YOU and we look forward to your ongoing support for Grenada and for each other. May God’s richest blessings be upon each one of us!

Dear Grenadian National,
 
The Government of Grenada has created an Office of Diaspora Affairs (ODA) with the aim of establishing an effective Grenadian Diaspora Network for economic transformation of Grenada.
 
The main purpose of the ODA is to identify the impact and leveraging of the Diaspora in terms of knowledge and skills transfers and improving its global commercial interface.
 
The ODA is under the direct supervision of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, headed by a Senior Aide who will be assisted by at least two staff members. Among the first tasks of the ODA will be the convening of a Preparatory Conference in St. George’s, August 5-6, 2010.
 
The objective and importance of the Conference are to create the momentum for taking broad reaching decisions on the agenda of Diaspora development and the time frame for the Founding Conference of the Diaspora in 2011. The Prep-Conference will comprise of an opening plenary meeting, followed by working groups, round tables and a closing plenary session.
 
The conference is a process with a road map leading to the Founding Conference of the Diaspora in 2011 and Homecoming in 2012 as its pinnacle. The Prep-Conference should be seen, in addition to the establishment of a national commission on the Diaspora, as a mechanism for implementing the Diaspora agenda.
 
Critical for the planning of the Preparatory Conference and other activities in the Diaspora is the creation of a Diaspora Knowledge Network (DKN) of Grenadian citizens.
The DKN aims to provide various online tools which will:
 
  • Help the ODA to source and identify the skills and expertise it needs from non-resident Grenadians (NRGs).
  • Facilitate online communications with other NRGs globally.
  • Submit proposals/issues which other NRGs can contribute and assist, depending on their level of skills and interest.
  • Sharing consultancy projects and other issues in Grenada that requires professionals’ advice and guidance which can be received from the vast knowledge network.
 
As such we request you to kindly provide use with the required information by completing the form (link below)  to help us strengthen the Diaspora Network.
