Prime Minister Browne launches ABAS booklet which he says offers tailored solutions to challenges of SIDS

In yet another landmark moment, the Antigua and Barbuda Agenda for SIDS – the ABAS is now in the hands of the Heads of State and Government of SIDS. 

The launch of the pocket-size booklet of the ABAS, took place Monday during a Breakfast Leadership meeting of AOSIS, which was held on the margins of the 79th General Assembly of the United Nations. 

The ABAS  has been creatively reproduced in the form of a pocketbook with images that capture some of the special moments of SIDS4 in Antigua and Barbuda in May of this year. It is now a handy tool that details the  new 10-year framework that was adopted at SIDS4 in Antigua in May of this year. The ABAS outlines the requirements for SIDS to achieve resilient prosperity and sustainable development.

The project was undertaken by the Antigua and Barbuda Mission in New York and was warmly welcomed by Prime Minister Browne who is in New York leading a high level delegation to the UN General Assembly. 

Prime Minister Browne told the assembly of leaders who convened for the breakfast meeting that it was incumbent on them to place their full political weight behind the ABAS, as it is now in a form that allows for an easy read that will help to increase their familiarity with the details of the ABAS.

Prime Minister Browne also reflected on key aspects of the ABAS and the overall ambition for SIDS as they seek to escape the grasp of external shocks, climate change and its severe consequences.
