Governance & Institutions: Dr. Pascual Zeegelaar was elected President of the Suriname Volleyball Association for 2026–2030, with a full executive board approved by acclamation. Regional Health Leadership: PAHO named Leah‑Mari Richards as Chief of the Caribbean Subregional Program, effective 7 May. Community & Rights: The Dominican Republic hosted the third Caribbean Symposium on Religious Freedom, drawing faith and policy leaders.
