The conference, under the theme Towards a New Development Paradigm for the Caribbean: The Next 50 Years, was held from April at the Divi Southwinds Beach Resort in Barbados. The Conference dates were selected to coincide with the UWI s Semester Break to facilitate attendance by teaching staff. Over 70 papers were presented during the three day period. Among the sub-themes represented were: Environment, Alternative Energy, the Green Economy and Sustainability; Trade, Industrial Policy and Competitiveness in the Caribbean; Contributions to Caribbean Development Thought: Sir Arthur Lewis; Pre- and Post-Lewis; Public Sector Issues in the Caribbean; Governance, Fiscal Policy and the Debt Crisis; Private Sector Development, SMEs and Finance in a Development Context; Regional Integration and Caribbean Economic Development; Caribbean Sovereignty and Governance; Media Representation, Identity, History and Culture; and Education, Technology and Development. During the Conference, the Sir Arthur Lewis Distinguished Lecture was delivered by Sir Marston Gibson, Chief Justice of Barbados. The lecture titled: Accelerating Justice: The UWI in the Justice Process, spoke to a role for the UWI and its students in ameliorating the severe backlog of cases in the Justice system of Barbados and was described as refreshingly different.
2 The feedback received about this SALISES Conference was overwhelmingly positive. It was felt that hosting the conference at the resident hotel proved to be desirable. Special acclaim was given for the efficient and effective organization, scheduling and execution of the conference programme. Special tribute was paid to staff at all levels in the Institute for the cohesive and focused way in which they worked to make the conference a success. Recommendations for improvement in future conferences included the possibility of streaming the conference proceedings as well as the Distinguished Lecture and having better online payment options. The Institute also hosted the SALISES staff retreat during the two days immediately following the conference and at the same venue. The annual Public Policy lecture was presented by Dr. Paul Sutton on June 11, 2013 on the topic Westminster Challenged, Westminster Confirmed: Which Way Caribbean Constitutional Reform?

3 The post of Professorial Fellow at SALISES Cave Hill remained vacant. The candidate selected to fill the post at the level of Senior Research Fellow was unable to do so, despite a number of extensions of the appointment date which she requested and was granted. As a consequence of this, the offer was withdrawn and a decision taken to re-advertise the post. This protracted vacancy had led to some supervision issues with graduate students. However, during the year, these issues were successfully resolved. There were notable staff promotions during These were: Promotion across the bar in the Senior Lecturer s scale. Dr. Jonathan Lashley Conferral of tenure. Dr. Corin Bailey Promotion across the Merit Bar in the Lecturer s scale and conferral of tenure.
