The Summit is aimed at bringing policy makers and experts face to face with villagers to initiate a discussion about the economic revitalization of the village. The FAM wants to partner with government and the private sector to tackle the problem of unemployment in the village, restore the once high educational standards, fix the infrastructural problems, address the housing needs and revive the agricultural industry in the village
The keynote address will be delivered by Minister of State Hon. Joseph Harmon. Other speakers are Minister of Housing Keith Scott, Presidential Advisor on Youth Empowerment, Aubrey Norton, Agriculturalist, Simpson DaSilva and Buxtonion entrepreneur, Morris Wilson.
