Former Trinidad and Tobago finance minister, Winston Dookeran, is calling for a shift in the Caribbean integration model in order to forge wider convergence spaces for approaching production, the institutional framework and economic frontiers.
Dookeran, an economist and former central bank governor, said the current integration model seems limited by size, design and inertia. Dookeran was the the fifth presenter to participate in the Keynote Lecture Series organized by the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) to commemorate the UN’s regional organization’s 75th anniversary.
