In just one year, Barbados had managed to fall even further down the Global Innovation Index, despite heavy investment. Will try to post more about this over on Substack/FB, but here’s the link in the meantime:

This is the passage I think of every time a yardfowl clucks “do you really want to see the DLP back in power?”

It’s the summoning of a defeated spectral Boogeyman to justify very real and very current inequities and harms.

Because I stink at short format content and nuff of wunna fyah bun Meta, I’m going to be using Substack as a mirror for my longer (and ruder) FB posts. First one up, and there’s another one I’m probably going to copy over later:

The Life Science Ecosystem. What it looks like. How it works. Why it’s important. And why things like missing pieces or slashed indirect costs can undermine STEM and healthcare development.

Interestingly enough Ciocca et al mention political instability, cronyism and regime change as major barriers to STEM-based development in Latin America back in 2017, a situation that has similarly hampered Caribbean STEM progress.

STEM really should be shielded from political interference.
