The Commonwealth of Dominica will bestow its highest national award, the Dominica Award of Honour, upon Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in recognition of his contributions to Dominica during the Covid-19 pandemic and his dedication to strengthening the partnership between India and Dominica.

The award will be presented by Sylvanie Burton, President of the Commonwealth of Dominica, at the India-CARICOM Summit, scheduled for November 19-21, 2024, in Georgetown, Guyana.

In February 2021, India provided Dominica with 70,000 doses of the AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine, a significant contribution that also allowed Dominica to assist neighbouring Caribbean countries.

This honour also acknowledges India’s continued support in areas such as healthcare, education, and information technology under PM Modi’s leadership, as well as his commitment to global climate resilience and sustainable development.
