Last year, March 2019, a group of us from Purpose 180 Foundation made the trip to Dominica to assist in the facilitation of a youth leaders retreat in Bataca. This is on the Eastern Coast of the island. It was a life changing weekend, as we shared with the participants about the various tools they could use to improve their presentation of the gospel to the youth in particular. Hope you enjoy the video below showing some of the events that transpired.

Why is it, that in the 21st century, our country's economic data has to look like a bunch of numbers and tables? Why can't there be more graphs and other data representations which are more easily understood by the general public?
Based on data from the Central Bank (of Barbados) Report issued on 31st October 2017, I thought to myself “Why not try my hand at making these numbers look a little more presentable, even “pretty” maybe ?” The graphs at the end of this blog present the public debt outstanding data based on table 5 of the aforementioned report. By the way, this isn't even new stuff! Check out Singapore's Budget, I see pie charts and bar charts, do you? http://www.singaporebudget.gov.sg/data/budget_2017/download/FY2017_Analysis_of_Revenue_and_Expenditure.pdf Disclaimer: The data presented in this blog was not created by an economist or other official government representative but used merely for illustrative purposes to augment the author's position.
