The Island’s economy has also experienced anemic growth since the global financial crisis in 2008. The country is now highly dependent on tourism, the main source of employment and income, which makes up 39 percent of GDP approximately. As internal Consumption of commodities and industrial inputs also relies heavily on imports, Saint Lucia is vulnerable to external economic, political and climatic conditions. Over the last decade, the country has witnessed increased unemployment, especially within the youth bracket. In an economy with such limited diversification, unemployment has become structural.
