The Situation of Children in the Eastern Caribbean Area and UNICEF Response
The Situation of Children in the Eastern Caribbean Area and UNICEF Response This Multi-CPAP covers 12 countries: Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, British Virgin Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Montserrat, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago and the Turks and Caicos Islands, managed by the UNICEF Office for the Eastern Caribbean Area based in Barbados and some out-posted staff in Trinidad and Tobago. Eastern Caribbean Area countries covered by this document are included in (1) the United Nations Development Assistance Frameworks (UNDAFs) 2012-2016 for Barbados and the Organization of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) and (2) UN Joint Programmes for Trinidad and Tobago. The poverty headcount in the Eastern Caribbean area ranges from 14 per cent in Barbados to 39 per cent in Dominica. The situation of those living under the poverty line is exacerbated by high income inequality where 20 per cent of the richest people receive 57 per cent of total incomei. Children account for a disproportionate share of the income poor in these Small Island Developing States (SIDS). The most disadvantaged girls and boys in the Eastern Caribbean Area include an estimated 500,000 children from income poor families, as well as non-income poor children from rural areas and outlying islands within island states; those at risk of violence, abuse, exploitation and discrimination- such as boys who have dropped out of school, street children, children in conflict with the law, children in institutions, children affected by migration, indigenous children in Dominica, children affected by HIV and children with disabilities. -

Antigua and Barbuda an Annotated Critical Bibliography
Antigua and Barbuda an annotated critical bibliography by Riva Berleant-Schiller and Susan Lowes, with Milton Benjamin Volume 182 of the World Bibliographical Series 1995 Clio Press ABC Clio, Ltd. (Oxford, England; Santa Barbara, California; Denver, Colorado) Abstract: Antigua and Barbuda, two islands of Leeward Island group in the eastern Caribbean, together make up a single independent state. The union is an uneasy one, for their relationship has always been ambiguous and their differences in history and economy greater than their similarities. Barbuda was forced unwillingly into the union and it is fair to say that Barbudan fears of subordination and exploitation under an Antiguan central government have been realized. Barbuda is a flat, dry limestone island. Its economy was never dominated by plantation agriculture. Instead, its inhabitants raised food and livestock for their own use and for provisioning the Antigua plantations of the island's lessees, the Codrington family. After the end of slavery, Barbudans resisted attempts to introduce commercial agriculture and stock-rearing on the island. They maintained a subsistence and small cash economy based on shifting cultivation, fishing, livestock, and charcoal-making, and carried it out under a commons system that gave equal rights to land to all Barbudans. Antigua, by contrast, was dominated by a sugar plantation economy that persisted after slave emancipation into the twentieth century. Its economy and goals are now shaped by the kind of high-impact tourism development that includes gambling casinos and luxury hotels. The Antiguan government values Barbuda primarily for its sparsely populated lands and comparatively empty beaches. This bibliography is the only comprehensive reference book available for locating information about Antigua and Barbuda. -
