S1.8 COVID-19 & Jamaica’s Future: Impacts, Solutions & Future Prospects

from Environmentally Speaking · host Mario Christie; Eleanor Terrelonge; Unnamae Gordon; Jaevion Nelson

Over the past few months, we’ve looked at how COVID-19 has affected various sectors, so in our final session we’ll be reviewing some of the most salient points, suggestions, tying them together, and wrapping them up. We want to figure out how we can craft our advocacy to address some of the issues highlighted and implement some of these solutions. We don’t want this initiative to end with us just having discussions and that’s the end of it. Our goal is to create a strategic plan about how we as young people can lobby our policymakers and private sector partners to create the radical change that we need to move Jamaica forward in a post COVID world.

As a military veteran and law enforcement officer, Steve understands the value of speaking directly and plainly on subject matters that are, far too often, nuanced to death by the modern-day Christian Church.As the host of The Regular Man Podcast, Steve has down-to-earth You Go Miss O Miss Oklahoma YOU GO MISS O is an ongoing conversation with Miss Oklahoma 2024, Lauren Frost, as she discusses her life as the reigning Miss O.
