The M/V “Saiga” (No. 2) (Saint Vincent and the Grenadines v. Guinea) (1999) 38 I.L.M. 1323 was, on the facts if not on the docket, the continuation and conclusion of The M/V “Saiga” 110 I.L.R. 736, the first case to be heard by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS) established under the 1982 Convention on the Law of the Sea. The cases arose out of an incident in which the Saiga—a Cypriot-owned, Scottish-managed and Swiss-chartered tanker flying the flag of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines—was detected refuelling fishing vessels at sea (“bunkering”) in the Exclusive Economic Zone, and in violation of the customs laws, of Guinea. Guinean patrol craft forcibly arrested the Saiga, injuring a Ukrainian crewman and a Senegalese painter, and escorted the ship to port, where its Ukrainian master was convicted of customs offences. As well as a suspended sentence of six months’ imprisonment, the court imposed a substantial fine, seizing the vessel and confiscating its cargo by way of guarantee.

Abstract:
Climate change is an existential threat to small island developing states. Policy coherence aims to create synergies and avoid conflicts between policies. Mainstreaming adaptation across multiple sectors and achieving greater coherence amongst policies is needed. The paper applies qualitative document analysis, content analysis, and expert interviews to examine the degree of coherence between climate-sensitive sector policies in framing climate change adaptation and the adaptation goals outlined in the national development plan and national climate change policies in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG), Grenada, and Saint Lucia. The results indicate that adaptation is not fully integrated into the water, agriculture, coastal zone, and forestry policies. For example, while adaptation was explicitly addressed in Saint Lucia’s water policy, it was not explicitly addressed in SVG’s and Grenada’s water policy. The results show that Saint Lucia has the highest coherence score (93.52) while St. Vincent and the Grenadines has the lowest (91.12). The optimal coherence score that can be possibly obtained is 147, which indicates partial coherence in adaptation mainstreaming in sectoral policies. Expert interviews highlighted problems such as institutional arrangements, a silo approach, funding mechanisms, and policy implementation. Using the knowledge provided by the experts, a seven-step process is proposed to practically achieve policy coherence and operationalize the policies.

Resumen: Se realizó un inventario de las poblaciones de aves silvestres en San Vicente y las Granadinas en los períodos de residencia invernal, reproducción y migración otoñal entre los años 2009 y 2010. El objetivo de este trabajo fue actualizar el inventario de las aves en diferentes localidades y hábitats de San Vicente y las Granadinas. En las 25 localidades muestreadas se detectaron 89 especies, de ellas, 54 se encuentran en Reservas Forestales, Jardines Botánicos y Áreas de Importancia para las Aves (IBAs) que por su grado de protección deben garantizar la existencia de las poblaciones de aves registradas para el país. Se registraron 28 de las especies de aves más significativas por su endemismo y grado de amenaza. Entre ellas están el Zumbador Crestado (Orthorhyncus cristatus), la Cotorra de San Vicente (Amazona guildingii), la Bijirita Silbadora (Catharopeza bishopi) y el Semillero Gorjirrojo (Loxigilla noctis). Durante los muestreos realizados se detectaron 45 especies de aves acuáticas, de las cuales, 25 pertenecen al orden Charadriiformes. Se pudo comprobar la importancia de Cayo Milligan y Battowia Island para la nidificación de aves acuáticas. En Battowia Island nidifica la mayor colonia mixta de estas aves.

Our objective was to update knowledge of bird distribution and status in various localities and habitats of the islands. In the 25 localities sampled, we detected 89 bird species, of which 54 were in forest reserves, botanical gardens, and Important Bird Area (IBAs) which, because of the degree of protection provided, should ensure the survival of these bird populations. We recorded 28 species of birds of greatest concern due to their endemism and degree of threat, including Antillean Crested Hummingbird (Orthorhyncus cristatus), St. Vincent Parrot (Amazona guildingii), Whistling Warbler (Catharopeza bishopi), and Lesser Antillean Bullfinch (Loxigilla noctis). We detected 45 species of aquatic birds during our sampling, of which 25 belong to the order Charadriiformes. Our observations verified the importance of Milligan Cay and Battowia Island for nesting aquatic birds. The most important mixed colony of aquatic birds nests on Battowia Island.

Abstract:
In many countries, including those in the Caribbean, there has recently been an increasing demand for professional development on inclusive educational practices This need for high-quality professional development is in line with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s (2016) call for inclusion of all children by 2030. Recently, our team was asked to provide professional development to educators in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines that focused on evidence-based practices for students with special education needs. Over the course of 3 years, this service work evolved into a multi-faceted pilot of inclusive education, whereby students with special education needs transitioned from a segregated school into mainstream schools. In this article, we present a collaborative autoethnography that highlights our collective experiences. Our self‑reflections chronicle our experiences and accompanying perceptions gained through providing support and education to educators, students, schools, community, and families in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines over a 3-year period, as they prepared for this transition to inclusion. In collectively reviewing our self-reflections, we discovered three major themes at the heart of our service work: (a) “barriers to inclusion,” (b) “the importance of relationships,” and (c) “transformation.” In discussing these three themes, we explore the successes and challenges we experienced throughout these service projects. What follows is a discussion of our reflective musings related to these experiences as shared critical knowledge for sustainable inclusion work within the Caribbean and beyond.

Abstract:
Nous proposons une description grammaticale du syntagme nominal (SN) du créole à base lexicale anglaise de Saint-Vincent-et-les-Grenadines (VinC). Ce créole, co-existant avec l'anglais, langue officielle, n'a pas encore fait l'objet d'une description linguistique étoffée. C'est pourquoi une réflexion sur le processus de créolisation, basée sur des écrits historiques, précède l'analyse syntaxique proprement dite. Suit une analyse phonologique qui donne une idée concise de la valeur phonique et accentuelle du VinC. L'orthographe proposée à l'issue de cette analyse a facilité l'écriture des exemples fournis dans l'étude. Notre approche s'appuie, essentiellement, sur les théories fonctionnaliste et structuraliste en ce qu'elle dégage les relations syntaxiques qui lient les éléments du SN. La description grammaticale se fait en trois temps. Premièrement, nous dégageons les éléments centraux du SN, i. E. Le nom et ses substituts pronominaux. Ce premier repérage précède l'étude des expansions à gauche du nom. Il s'agit des déterminants et des modifieurs. Ensuite, nous proposons une approche unifiée des expansions à droite du SN, les postmodifieurs. Ainsi, du point de vue fonctionnel, les propositions relatives, de modalité et prépositionnelles, tout comme les compléments de noms, reçoivent la même analyse syntaxique. Le Chapitre 6 est consacré à des questions afférant au concept de référence et à la façon dont il influe sur l'emploi grammatical des déterminants définis et indéfinis. Ce chapitre prône une analyse en termes de familiarité et de capacité identificatoire des interlocuteurs, pour capter les concepts de définitude et de spécificité, termes grammatico-sémantiques, qui deviennent inopérants dans l'analyse du SN sans déterminant
This study proposes a grammatical description of the noun phrase (NP) of the English-lexicon Creole of St. Vincent and the Grenadines (VinC). VinC, which coexists with its superstrate, is at present linguistically unaccounted for. As a result, prior to the syntactic analysis, we reflect on the process of creolisation that could account for the origin of VinC, based on historical documents. We then provide a phonological analysis, which gives a concise idea of the phonemic and accentual features of VinC. The alphabet recommended, is intended to render the transcription of the examples provided in the study conform to the phonological nature of the creole. The grammatical description itself, covered in three chapters, hinges on the functionalist and structuralist frameworks, as it seeks to describe the syntactic relations existing between the constituents of the NP. Firstly, we study the features of the head of the NP, i. E. The noun and its substitutes. We then analyse the left expansions of nouns, i. E. Determiners as well as modifiers. The penultimate chapter offers a unified analysis of the post-modifiers of the VinC NP, i. E. Relative clauses, complementizer clauses, prepositional clauses and noun complements. The final chapter focuses on the concept of reference and how it influences the choice of definite and indefinite determiners. Here, we advocate an analysis based on the theory of familiarity and degree of identification from the hearer's point of view that could account for definiteness and specificity: grammatical-semantic notions that often fall short in their analysis of the null determiner

Abstract:
To accommodate an increasing number of tourists visiting Bequia, the second largest island of Saint-Vincent and the Grenadines, the local government constructed an airport, through a major coastline land-reclamation project. However, due to the prevailing ocean current patterns in the area, an inlet created on the east side of the new airport is prone to trapping significant amounts of ocean-borne debris. This litter accumulation creates a health risk to local fishermen who clean their daily catch using water from the inlet. It is proposed to install a rubble-mound groyne structure on the eastward side of the new inlet to address this problem. The utilisation of a coastline groyne in this case is somewhat unorthodox, as the latter is normally employed to mitigate against coastal erosion. The goal of this study is to optimise the groyne design with the assistance of a 3D numerical model. The ‘Delft3D’ open-source model (WAVE and FLOW modules) was selected to examine the effects of different orientations and lengths of the proposed groyne on the movements of floating debris. Included in the initial phase of the study was a field investigation to collect certain data which were necessary for model calibration and validation. This involves the use of an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) to measure local shore bathymetry and also current velocities over a range of tidal cycles.

Abstract:
Understanding why persons repeatedly place themselves at risk for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), amidst the wealth of prevention information available is of profound importance. Presently, scientific research of this phenomenon has been dominated by the cognitive models of health behaviour, but these were criticised for ignoring emotional, social and cultural influences on sexual behaviour. This thesis explored and investigated some of these non-cognitive factors within the specific cultural context of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, with sole reference to women, to understand why women put themselves at risk and also help inform the country’s efforts to tackle the problem. This research comprised of four studies, each targeting women ages (18-40 yrs) and sexually involved in relationships. Study one was a qualitative study (N= 10), which explored women’s perceptions of the socio-cultural influences which contributes to their decision to engage in risky sex. Study two was a quantitative study in which (N=75), HIV+ women were surveyed, on whether they contracted HIV from within their long term relationships. Study three was a qualitative Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) study (N=9); in-depth interviews investigated the intricacies of long-term relationships that made them more likely to influence unsafe sexual practices. Study four was a quantitative study (N=60) women; used questionnaires to investigate the validity that tolerance to infidelity and non use of condoms in long term relationships, which contributes to HIV transmission amongst Vincentian women. This research confirmed the existing limitations of the Cognitive models on health when applied to sexual behavior and produced evidence that Vincentian women more at vulnerable to contracting HIV within their long term relationships.

Full text
Abstract:
Le Dügü est un culte de possession pratiqué par les Garifunas, un peuple afroamérindien originaire de l’île de Saint-Vincent, située dans les petites Antilles. Suite à leur déportation en masse vers l’Amérique Centrale par la Couronne britannique en 1797, aujourd’hui, les Garifunas constituent un peuple homogène et transnational répandu sur le littoral atlantique de l’Amérique Centrale. À la différence de la majorité des cultes afro-américains qui abritent pour la plupart un panthéon peuplé de divinités africaines, le Dügü est le domaine des esprits des parents défunts ascendants : les hiuruha et les gubida. Culte magico-religieux qui ignore le dogme et dont la pratique rituelle est la marque, le Dügü suppose la croyance aux esprits des ancêtres capables d’intervenir dans les corps des individus par la possession. Dans la trame cosmogonique du culte, les ancêtres sont censés suivre un itinéraire précis depuis Yurumein, l’île des origines, en traversant la mer des Caraïbes pour finalement débarquer au Honduras, la terre de l’exil. Ce passé est resté gravé dans le Dügü et survit souterrainement dans les sphères inconscientes des individus. Les ancêtres apparaissent en songe, dans des scénarios hallucinatoires, et sont également à l’origine de maladies et de l’infortune en générale. Ce souvenir a aussi donné naissance à un personnage essentiel pour sa propagation : le buyei. À la fois médium, guérisseur et chef de culte, le buyei est considéré comme le membre le plus éminent de toute la communauté religieuse. Or, pour arriver à ce statut, le Dügü exige des rites de passage au cours desquels les élus vont subir une transformation inédite de leur identité. Ce travail se donne pour objectif de décrire et d’analyser le parcours initiatique du buyei, qui s’appui sur deux années de recherche ethnographique au Honduras. L’un des enjeux essentiels consiste à comprendre comment ce personnage devient le fil capteur d’une mémoire historique grâce à la domestication de la possession. La possession est hautement valorisée dans le contexte du Dügü car elle est conceptualisée comme étant la manifestation directe des morts. Par ailleurs, la thèse accorde une place importante à l’expression de l’ontologie protéiforme des agents spirituels aussi bien dans des contextes rituels que non-rituels. Finalement, il s’agit de montrer ici que le cas garifuna révèle ostensiblement que l’articulation de la tradition à l’expérience individuelle constitue la clef de voûte dans les dynamiques de transmission
Dügü is a possession cult practiced by the Garifuna, an Afro-Amerindian society originated on the isle of Saint-Vincent, located in the Lesser Antilles. After their mass deportation to Central America by the British Crown in 1797, in the present, the Garifuna are a homogenous and transnational group scattered along the Atlantic Coast of Central America. Unlike the majority of Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Brazilian cults, the African deities do not appear in the cosmological structure of the Dügü. Instead, the Garifuna worship two categories of spiritual entities: the hiuruha and the gubida, the spirits of the dead. As a traditional religious cult, the Dügü is not based on any form of dogma and relies rather upon ritual practice. The ancestral entities are believed to act on the bodies of their living descendants by spirit possession. In the religious repertoire, ancestors follow a precise itinerary from Yurumein, the original motherland, from where they navigate on the Caribbean Sea to finally arrive to Honduras, the land of the exile. This memory remains entrenched in the Dügü and it survives beneath the surface of individuals’unconscious realms. Ancestors become visible in dreams, in hallucinatory visions and they are also the instigators of illness and misfortune. This legacy also gave birth to an important character for its propagation: the buyei. Also known as a medium and a traditional healer, the garifuna religion relies on the leadership of such ritual character. Nevertheless, in order to achieve this position, candidates most go through initiation rites that will profoundly transform their own personal identity. The main purpose of this present study is to describe and analyze the buyei’s initiation journey, which relies on two years of ethnographic research in Honduras. It argues how this character evolves into a living-support for a group’s historical memory due to the ability to master spirit possession. Possession is highly valued in the Dügü, since it is conceptualized as a direct contact with the dead. Moreover, an important place will be accorded to the expression of the fluctuating ontology of the spirits during ritual and non-ritual contexts. Finally, I intend to show here that the garifuna case reveals ostensibly how the link between tradition and individual experience turns out to be a relevant keystone in transmission dynamics

Abstract:
L'etude des miracles chez saint vincent ferrier touche un aspect essentiel de l'evolution des mentalites a la fin du moyen-age. L'affirmation du realisme et de la raison s'accompagne alors d'une multiplication et d'une diversification des miracles. La structure des depositions faites a vannes, toulouse et naples montre que le miracle n'est pas rejete lors du proces de canonisation. Son integration s'accompagne d'un glissement des miracles physiques vers les miracles moraux. Une construction theologique sous-tend ces recits de miracles ou vincent est identifie aux saints, aux apotres et au christ, qu'il avait imites toute sa vie. Dans ses sermons et traites, vincent prefere l'appui des ecritures aux prodiges trompeurs. La surnaturalisation resulte d'une relecture des evenements historiques et personnels a la lumiere de la bible, d'une actualisation de celle-ci. Le miracle est un scheme eschatologique qui participe a la predication du jugement dernier contre les tendances millenaristes et revolutionnaires. Vincent rappelle la responsabilite personnelle et annonce le salut aux traumatises de la peste. Aux victimes de la guerre de cent ans, aux brebis egarees par le grand schisme. Pour reformer l'eglise dans ses membres et faire l'unite, vincent inaugure la grande predication populaire itinerante, qui le mene d'espagne en italie, du midi a la bretagne. Soucieux d'obtenir des conversions sinceres chez les pecheurs, les heretiques comme chez les juifs et les musulmans, vincent adopte un langage festif integrant le miraculeux et le merveilleux qui enthousiasment les masses hermetiques aux arguties de la scolastique. La recherche effrenee de miracles comme la pratique des flagellations par les foules revelent la meme peur de ne pas meriter le salut. L'inflation des miracles resulte aussi des progres de la pastorale dans le domaine sacramentel, du fait de l'analogie entre sacramentaux, sacrements et miracles qui relevent pareillement de l'efficacite symbolique
The study of the miracles in saint vincent ferrer touches on an essential feature of the evolution of the mentalities at the end of the middle ages. At that time, the assertion of realism and reason went hand in hand with a growth and a diversification in miracles. The structure of the depositions made in vannes, toulouse and naples showed that miracles were not rejected during the canonization procedure. A shift from physical to moral miracles accompanied the integration of the aforementioned. A theological construction underlies the accounts of the miracles in which vincent is identified with the saints, the apostles and christ, all those he had imitated in his life. In his sermons and treatises, vincent prefered to rely on the scriptures rather than on misleading wonders. The surnaturalisation resulted from a rereading of historical and personal events in the light of the bible and from its updating. A miracle is an eschatological schema that takes part in the preaching of doomsday against millenarist and revolutionary tendencies. Vincent emphasized personal responsibility and announced salvation to the distraught victims of the plague, to those of the hundred years'war as well as to the floch led astray by the great schism. So as to reform and unify the church, vincent inaugurated itinerant popular preaching which took him from spain to italy, from the south of france to brittany. Eager to obtain sincere conversions among the sinners, the heretics, the jews and the muslims, vincent adopted a festive language integrating the miraculous and the supernatural that filled the masses, impervious to scholastic quibbles, with enthusiasm. Both the frantic search for miracles and the common practice of flagellation reflected the same fear : that of being unworthy of salvation. The overabundance of miracles was also brought about by the progress in the field of sacramental teaching, owing to the analogy between sacramentals, sacraments and miracles

Abstract:
This study examines the purpose of colonial and post education policies in the British West Indies and more specifically, the post-independent government of St.Vincent and the Grenadines. The study concurs that the purpose of education should be for one’s personal, community and country’s development. The educated is likely to become productive members of society by engaging in activities that will foster development, create opportunities and promote policies that will enhance democratization of their country. The researcher found that neither the colonial nor post colonial purposes of education policies were specifically designed to develop the country. While the colonial education policies were designed to fulfill the needs of the colonial system, the post-colonial policies are primarily based on academia which is designed for the export market due to the lack of available local vacancies for the acquired education and skills. The conclusions drawn from the fmdings suggests that a brain drain has emerged with the citizens of SVG being educated, either for education sake as a means of pride, mobility or to fill the market for qualified personnel overseas.

This Energy Dossier is part of a series of publications produced by the Energy Division of the Infrastructure and Environment Department of the Inter-American Development Bank. It is designed to increase the knowledge base about the composition and organization of the energy sector of Latin American and Caribbean countries. Each dossier describes the energy matrix of the country under analysis and then dives deeply into the institutional organization and regulatory framework of the energy sector in that country. This series is an important contribution to the understanding of the energy sector of the Eastern Caribbean countries, as many projects providing comparable information have been carried out in this part of the hemisphere.

Abstract:
This publication is part of a series of reports produced by the Energy Division of the Infrastructure and Environment Department of the Vice President of the Research Department at the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) with support from Compete Caribbean as a regional public good. It is designed to increase the base of knowledge about the characteristics and functions of the Energy Sector in Latin American and Caribbean countries (LAC). The description of the energy matrix and sector governance of each country in the Caribbean has been carried out in parallel to similar work for the rest of the Latin American and Caribbean region. However, the methodology for this region varies slightly from country to country as there is not a single set of comparable data for all the nations in this group. The sources of information are all publicly available and include the International Energy Agency, the U.S. Energy Information Administration, the Global Environment Fund, the United Nations, the International Renewable Energy Agency, consulting firms, and local governments and utilities.
