Head of Delegation
During my mandate, I will carry into effect all the new consequences, commitments and roles of the European External Action Service resulting from the Lisbon Treaty. It pays for all the constituencies I am responsible for, that means Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Saba, Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten and CARICOM. On the diplomatic level I will implement the shift of the European external doing from almost exclusive development cooperation activities to much more balanced three pillars based actions: political, trade and development cooperation. I will improve the PR of the European external action in the constituencies and amongst the EU Member States, I will improve their perception, when it comes to the meaningfulness of it. I will help to boost European trade with the constituencies and I will guard the effectiveness and accountability of implementation of the development cooperation programmes. A separated challenge will be the programming of the 11 European Development Fund. On the regional note, I will pursue a real and substantial Caribbean integration. When it comes to the managerial challenges, I will encourage all the three Delegations' staff to identify themselves with the EU ideas, to be dedicated to the service and I will improve the working atmosphere in the sense of team building. I will, indeed, represent the European Union in Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, Saba, Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten and Caricom/Cariforum in accordance with the mandate given to me by the Headquarters.
