A Jamaican is among three candidates short-listed for the post of Secretary-General of the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) grouping.
A Caribbean Media Corporation report says she’s Patricia Francis, former Executive Director of the International Trade Centre.
The others are Guyana’s Brussels-based Ambassador to the ACP, Dr. P.I Gomes and Dr. Hamid Ghany, a senior lecturer at the St. Augustine campus of the University of the West Indies.
The Secretary General holds executive powers and heads the Brussels-based ACP Secretariat, which is the administrative and technical body of the Group.
The Secretariat, among other things, monitors the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement.
Mrs. Francis first came to prominence as head of Jamaica‘s investment promotion and facilitation agency, JAMPRO.
