Prime Minister Drew to Deliver National Address on New SEED Strategy for Economic Transformation

Prime Minister of St. Kitts and Nevis, Dr. Terrance M. Drew, will address the nation this evening, Monday, 7th July 2025, at 7:30 PM, to unveil details of the government’s flagship Sustainable Economic Expansion and Diversification (S.E.E.D) strategy. The address will be broadcast live across major media platforms including ZIZ, Freedom FM, VON Radio and Winn FM.

The S.E.E.D initiative is positioned as a transformative economic blueprint designed to move St. Kitts and Nevis toward a resilient and diversified economy—one that reduces dependency on traditional sectors and fosters sustainable development.

Launched under the leadership of Prime Minister Drew, the S.E.E.D strategy seeks to chart a new path for national prosperity through targeted investments in innovation, green energy, agriculture, manufacturing, the digital economy, and human capital development.

Tonight’s national address is expected to outline the policy framework and implementation roadmap of the S.E.E.D programme, which will be a centrepiece of the Drew administration’s agenda heading into the second half of 2025 and beyond. According to government sources, the initiative is structured to support entrepreneurship, create long-term employment opportunities, and improve economic self-sufficiency.

The Prime Minister has repeatedly stated that the sustainable island state agenda cannot be achieved without economic diversification. “We are putting the mechanisms in place to ensure that our people are not just workers in someone else’s vision, but architects of their own future,” he remarked in a recent speech.

The S.E.E.D strategy also reinforces ongoing efforts to reform the education system, digitise government services, improve food and energy security, and modernise infrastructure.

Analysts expect the national address to provide key updates on timelines and partnerships related to S.E.E.D. It comes at a pivotal moment, as the government continues to stabilise the economy post-COVID and navigate global economic uncertainties.

Citizens and residents are being encouraged to tune in to the live broadcast to learn how they can take advantage of the opportunities the S.E.E.D programme will offer.
