On November 19, 2024, Her Excellency Christine Carla Kangaloo O.R.T.T., President of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, received a courtesy call from Mr. Julian Belgrave, the newly appointed Country Representative of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB).

During the meeting, Mr. Belgrave presented Her Excellency with a captivating portrait created as part of the Mural Mechanic Workshop, an initiative led by the IDB Trinidad and Tobago Country Office. The workshop engaged upper secondary school art students from Port of Spain and surrounding areas, focusing on mural creation as a pathway to skill-building and fostering the local creative sector.

The initiative not only showcased the artistic talents of young participants, but also explored opportunities for future collaborations within the IDB’s creative sector initiatives.

Her Excellency commended the IDB for its meaningful investment in the local youth and creative industries and expressed her admiration for the students’ exceptional work. She wished Mr. Belgrave success in future projects that continue to empower and inspire the nation’s youth.
