The Women Parliamentarians of Trinidad and Tobago join the Caribbean in celebrating Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley, who has been ranked 99th on Forbes’ 2025 list of the World’s 100 Most Powerful Women. She is the only Caribbean leader to appear on this year’s list.
PM Mottley’s recognition reflects her growing global influence, particularly her leadership on climate justice and international financial reform. Through initiatives such as the Bridgetown Initiative, she has helped shift global conversations around debt relief and climate financing for vulnerable small island states, ensuring that Caribbean voices are heard at the highest levels.
Her inclusion on the Forbes list underscores a powerful truth: leadership from small states can shape global policy. It also stands as an important moment for Caribbean women in politics, affirming that principled, people-centred leadership from the region continues to command international respect.
