The Barbados Labour Party believes that Barbadians have a
right to live in a strong and cohesive society which provides:
• Access to quality, affordable land and housing.
• Decent livable wages.
• Access to affordable, wholesome food that allows
Barbadians to eat a nutritionally balanced diet so they
may pursue healthy lifestyles.
• Universal access to free quality education.
• Universal access to quality healthcare.
• Access to recreation and sports facilities in our
communities.
• Access to cultural and arts training.
• Access to modern information and communications
technology island-wide.
• Access to affordable and reliable transportation services
island-wide.
• The preservation of our natural and built environments.
• Maintaining Barbados as a safe and socially just society
with adequate supportive mechanisms to mitigate the
economic hardship of those who find themselves without
work.
Achieving and maintaining these standards are essential to
our long-term stability and well-being. They also establish
a firm foundation for economic development and social
justice, both of which are critical to our international
competitiveness. This is the Barbadian way.
