Foreign policy
Bilateral posture, key relationships, and live diplomatic statements.
Foreign Policy
Saint Lucia's foreign policy is oriented around Caribbean integration through CARICOM and OECS, climate advocacy through AOSIS, and bilateral relationships with major development partners (US, UK, France, Taiwan/China -- Saint Lucia has oscillated between the two).
Saint Lucia advocates for preferential trade treatment for small economies, climate finance for SIDS, and sustainable tourism development. It coordinates closely with OECS partners on a common external tariff and shared diplomatic positions.
MUN Delegate Guide
As Saint Lucia, you represent a small island state with outsized cultural and intellectual credentials. Two Nobel laureates from a population of 180,000 is a remarkable achievement -- use it to establish intellectual credibility.
Coordinate with OECS and CARICOM partners on all major issues. Climate vulnerability, debt sustainability, and trade fairness for small economies are your core platforms. Push for SIDS-specific metrics in development frameworks.
Build alliances with other tourism-dependent economies on sustainable tourism and diversification. Saint Lucia's vulnerability to external shocks (hurricanes, pandemics, global recessions) makes you an effective advocate for economic resilience and disaster preparedness.
