ARGO Sponsors Awesome FC All-Female Team

On Saturday, September 26, ARGO Development Studio outfitted the Awesome FC all-female team with complete football kits, comprising of jerseys, shorts and socks.

Awesome FC was formed by Mr. Dominique Stowe and Renson Haynes in February 2016. The club currently has three school teams, including a 25-member all-female team, predominantly made up of secondary school students in and around Kingstown, with a few students from rural schools.

Stowe, on behalf of the Awesome Football Club, expressed his thanks to ARGO

for their generous sponsorship of the newly formed female team, for the upcoming 2021 season. He stated that this sponsorship has generated a buzz through the entire team and persons connected to the club, and that the club seeks to live up to its vision and mission and most of all, the club’s core values of perseverance, discipline and respect.

ARGO is an international award-winning architectural company which began operations in St. Vincent and the Grenadines in July 2019 and is located on Grenville Street (downstairs the World Paediatric Project office). ARGO specialises in a design and construction process called BIM (Building Information Modelling). BIM allows for buildings to be designed in a scientific way, making them increasingly resilient to the effects of natural disasters. This process allows ARGO to design, cost and construct intelligent buildings in a 3D virtual environment achieving savings of up to 20 percent over conventional 2D delivery. ARGO also has offices in Barbados, Dominica and Ireland, and several project offices in the Caribbean.

ARGO’s managing drector David Campion says that the company’s ethos regarding corporate social responsibility, is to create a strong bond with the communities within which they operate through outreach programmes and sponsorship to charities, schools and sports clubs. ARGO’s aim is to connect with the wider community by building strong connections both inside and outside the organisation.

    THE CARIBBEAN PUBLIC HEALTH AGENCY (CARPHA) and the Small Arms Survey formalised a strategic partnership through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed to enhance the effectiveness of arms and ammunition management and reduce the risks associated with illicit small arms and light weapons in the Caribbean region.  This three year agreement reflects a shared commitment to addressing the multifaceted impacts of violence, illicit firearms, and crime on population health, health systems, and sustainable development, a CARPHA release dated December 5, 2025 states. By combining CARPHA’s public health leadership with the Small Arms Survey’s internationally recognised expertise in arms monitoring and security-related research, this partnership will expand regional capacity for evidence-based decision-making.  Speaking at the signing ceremony, CARPHA Executive Director, Dr. Lisa Indar, shared the importance of cross-sectoral collaboration. “Violence and firearm-related injuries present a growing public health challenge for the Caribbean. This MoU allows us to strengthen surveillance, generate robust research, and support our Member States through data-driven policies that protect lives and improve community well-being.”  Representing the Small Arms Survey, Dr. Nicolas Florquin, head of data and analytics, welcomed the partnership as a strategic step toward enhancing the region’s response to security threats.  “We are proud to deepen our relationship with CARPHA. It has been a great privilege to partner with the leading regional Agency on public health, in a fruitful collaboration since 2023. We look forward to deepening the cooperation through this agreement.” Under the MoU, CARPHA will contribute its operational expertise in regional health surveillance, while the Small Arms Survey will complement this with its robust policy engagement, technical assistance and capacity support to national institutions,  as well as its recognised expertise in evidence-based research, data generation and the development of tools that inform and improve policy and practice.  The primary objectives of this partnership include: Data collection and surveillance- Collaboration on integrating firearm-related injury and mortality data into national and regional health surveillance systems.  Research, analysis and public policy: Preparation of joint studies on the health burden of firearm violence.  Capacity Building: Development of materials and delivery of workshops for Ministries of Health, Justice, Legal Affairs and Security on applying a public health lens to firearm policy.  Policy Translation and Advocacy: Provision of support to CARICOM, national governments, and international development organisations for evidence- based policymaking on gun control and violence prevention guided by the public health approach.  Communications and Public Awareness: Facilitation of the use of research findings in communication products for policymakers and the public.  CARPHA said this partnership underscores its commitment to advancing regional health security, while supporting Member States in creating safer, healthier environments for all Caribbean people.  The Small Arms Survey is a centre for applied knowledge dedicated to preventing and reducing illicit small arms proliferation and armed violence. It is an associated programme of the Geneva Graduate Institute, located in Switzerland.
