Last update: 6 hours agoPublic Service Recruitment: Overseas Territories Deputy Governors and Heads of Public Service met in Bermuda after shortages in civil servant hiring were flagged as a growing health of governance issue, with ageing populations, outward migration, and private-sector competition making it harder to attract new talent; Anguilla was among the territories represented. Marine Protection: Montserrat joined the UK Blue Belt Programme on World Ocean Day, committing to protect at least 20% of its maritime zone with support for marine protected areas, fisheries management, marine planning, and updated marine laws—Anguilla is already part of the programme. Environment Month: St. Kitts and Nevis launched its 2026 Environment Month under a climate-action theme, stressing shared public stewardship and linking environmental sustainability with social resilience and economic development. Waste & Public Health: The U.S. Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority is stepping up enforcement at public bin sites, warning illegal dumping and misuse can drive pests, overflow, and environmental harm, with fines up to $1,000 and reminders not to place hazardous or medical waste in bins. Wellness Travel Trend: A Global Wellness Summit survey highlights wellness moving beyond resort spas into homes, workplaces, recovery, and community design—an angle that may shape how Anguilla markets health-focused stays.
