As Director of CERMES at UWI Cave Hill, he's spent years watching Caribbean drone policy lag behind Caribbean drone practice, and he's doing something about it. In this conversation, Alan Gabriel talks with Professor Yawson about how CERMES built one of the region's earliest drone programs around monitoring sargassum strandings, why "banned" is the wrong word for Barbados' cautious permitting process, and how the Caribbean Drone Hub just rolled out the region's first tiered drone certification. They also dig into what came out of the inaugural Caribbean Drone Symposium, from repair-center gaps to the push for certifications that travel across borders. Tune in to discover how one small university unit is trying to build the regulatory backbone the Caribbean drone industry has been missing.
