AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

UNESCO Biosphere Reserve: Aruba has officially been approved as a UNESCO Man and the Biosphere (MAB) Biosphere Reserve, covering the whole island (~19,300 hectares) and linking land with the Exclusive Economic Zone (~3 million hectares), with about 108,000 residents—an island-wide conservation model built with government, communities, scientists, and private partners. Nature-in-daily-life: Ahead of World Oceans Day, DNM director Gisbert Boekhoudt stressed that nature protection must be woven into everyday decisions, tourism, and development, building on Aruba’s National Biodiversity Strategic Action Plan (approved in 2024). Climate adaptation push: A national survey finds residents strongly back climate adaptation, with nearly nine out of ten saying it should be a critical urgency or top priority. Economy outlook: Finance Minister Geoffrey Wever says Aruba’s 2026 growth projection is positive, citing stronger 2025 visitor numbers and employment gains. Public health & tech: Aruba hosted DuCaPHEN and MoBoCon meetings on surveillance and mosquito control, while HOH introduced an MRI-first approach for elevated PSA patients to reduce unnecessary biopsies. Food security reality check: New research says full food self-sufficiency is unrealistic for Aruba and the wider Dutch Caribbean due to land, water, and energy limits.
