Deputy Director, Institute of Marine Affairs, Trinidad and Tobago

"When I returned home in 2011, we were able to convince the government to appoint a committee and integrate a coastal zone policy. I chaired that committee and basically what I learned from the U.S. in terms of how to approach it is what I practiced back home."
