The Democratic People's Movement
DPM combines the experience Grenada needs with the innovation it deserves. Powered by proven leaders, NextGen energy, Grenadians at home, and our global diaspora family, we focus on three things that stabilize life:
work that pays and stays, food that feeds, and healthcare that reaches you.
Why We Exist
Politics that unites, not divides.
We are not the old parties. We reject politics built on colours, personality, and promises that never reach people.
DPM was created to organize differently: listen in every parish, act with purpose, build from the ground up. We bring elders, working people, and youth together because national progress takes all three.
We work for every Grenadian at home and every Grenadian abroad who still carries this country in their heart. We work for young people who deserve better than watching their friends leave for opportunities that should exist at home. We work for families crushed by grocery bills, parents stretching paychecks, workers who deserve dignity.
First we question. Then we organize. Finally we move forward, together.
The Progressive Agenda for Empowerment (PAE)
Our people are our greatest resource, and we must start to act as if we know that this is true. People need stability to breathe, to plan, and to build. PAE is how we make that possible.Three anchors:
Good Governance - The Foundation
None of this works without transparent, accountable systems. Good governance isn’t optional. It’s the base everything else is built on.
We commit to transparent financial systems, clear standards that keep power accountable to people, and predictable processes that rebuild trust. When systems work the way they should, government serves people instead of the other way around.
Representatives return to Parliament as ambassadors of their communities, not party bosses. Community councils and constituency units get real decision-making autonomy. Continuous public engagement isn’t a bonus, it’s the standard.
When governance is transparent and predictable, people trust government again.

WORK THAT PAYS AND STAYS
Grenadians shouldn’t have to leave home to build a life they can be proud of.
We’re launching a National Human Resource Reset: a full survey of every person in the job market to understand their aspirations and skill levels, then building training programs and opening pathways matched to Grenada’s actual human resources.
We’re streamlining business registration and cutting red tape so entrepreneurs can start and grow businesses without bureaucratic bottlenecks. Small businesses are the engine of job creation, and they need access to capital, simplified procedures, and support systems that work.
We’re also providing housing grants of $35,000 for singles and $50,000 for couples under 35 as down payments on their first homes. When young people can afford homes, start businesses, and find meaningful work, brain drain slows and communities thrive.
FOOD THAT FEEDS US
We cannot win the fight against the cost of living unless we win the fight for national food security. Your grocery bill is a national security issue.
We will turn farmers and fishers into modern, resilient entrepreneurs through a comprehensive plan for modernization and market access. This includes:
- Guaranteed market pricing for local staples
- Subsidized climate-smart irrigation and technology, and local processing facilities to reduce post-harvest losses.
- We will build strategic reserves for essential commodities and negotiate long-term bulk procurement contracts with diverse suppliers.
- We will incentivize domestic production to actively reduce import dependency and shield Grenadian families from external economic shocks.
Our goal: cut the food import bill while stabilizing domestic prices.
When we feed ourselves, we control costs and keep money here.
HEALTHCARE THAT REACHES YOU
Healthcare is a fundamental right. A great society is measured by how it cares for its most vulnerable, and we will deliver a system defined by compassion, accessibility, and dignity.
We will start with our National Wellness Agenda, promoting prevention and support for wellness before crisis. We will implement a National Health Insurance system to reduce out-of-pocket expenses and ensure healthcare doesn’t depend on your bank account.
We will invest in healthcare workers, facilities, and equipment. The crisis in healthcare is not just a building issue. It’s a people issue. We have let down our nurses, doctors, and caregivers, leading to staff burnout and emigration.
We will expand rural healthcare access through mobile clinics and community health centers, bringing care to every parish instead of forcing everyone to travel to town for basic needs.
We will respect and reward our frontline workers, provide the resources they need, and create an environment where they can actually care for us.
Healthcare must reach every community, not force everyone to travel to town for basic needs.
POLITICS LOST A GENERATION.
THE MOVEMENT BROUGHT THEM HOME.
Young people who never registered, never voted, never engaged are now organizing communities and leading from the ground. NextGen didn’t join this Movement – they helped built it. And they’re not waiting for permission to reshape Grenada.
Our Diaspora
Partners, Not Visitors
Over 360,000 Grenadians live abroad. They’re not “former” Grenadians. They’re family. And family doesn’t just send money home – they invest in home, they build home, they shape home.
Peter David launched Grenada’s first national diaspora policy and built structured engagement with communities in Canada, the US, and the UK. The Movement expands this through a Five Point Diaspora Engagement Plan, developed with input from Grenadians abroad, on social media, and on street corners at home:
Connecting diaspora investors with government and private sector for projects in renewable energy, agriculture, health, education, and technology.
Transparent mechanisms for capital investment in startups, tourism, and infrastructure. You shouldn’t have to know someone to invest in your own country.
Pathways for second and third generation Grenadians to reconnect and contribute, including citizenship by descent.
Enabling professionals abroad to collaborate with local counterparts. US nurses working with General Hospital staff. Engineers mentoring local firms. Knowledge transfer that strengthens both sides.
OUR lEADERSHIP
The Democratic People’s Movement combines proven experience with fresh energy. Our leaders have delivered results, built systems that work, and earned trust through action, not promises.
They don’t just talk about change. They’ve built it.
Hon. Peter David
Political leader
Peter David serves as the Political Leader of the Movement. He has spent two decades proving politics can work when you put people before party. Elected MP for Town of St. George four times since 2003, his work shows up where people live and work: Fort George rehabilitation, River Road flood mitigation, youth programs, and affordable housing repairs. Not promises. Results.
Across every ministry, the pattern is the same. As Foreign Minister, he built Grenada’s first national diaspora policy, proposed bipartisan foreign affairs review, and opened new markets for Grenadian exports. As Tourism Minister, he attracted major investments. As Agriculture Minister, he put land in farmers’ hands and launched programs that created jobs while strengthening local production.
His approach is consistent: work across party lines when it serves the country, support communities directly, and build systems that last beyond any political term. His life’s work has been fighting for workers. Now he is building a movement where workers’ rights are not nostalgia, they are the foundation.
He leads with unity, discipline, and purpose. He listens first, asks hard questions, and brings people together to solve real problems. He has earned trust across political lines because he delivers. His focus is simple: stable lives, strong communities, and a Grenada that works for all of us.
Alister "Archie" Bain
Chairman
Archie Bain serves as the Interim Chairman of the Movement. He brings structure, integrity, and working-class credibility. He is the General Secretary and Treasurer of the Grenada Seamen and Waterfront Workers Union, a small business owner, and a former Senior Project Manager in the Ministry of Finance and Customer Service Supervisor at Grenlec. Born and raised in Fontenoy, he carries the values of community, humility, and hard work into everything he does.
His years in the union movement shaped his belief that leadership must be accountable to working people. Structure matters to him because it keeps the Movement disciplined, coordinated, and focused on results instead of noise.
He is the engine room: constituency cells, standards, accountability. He keeps the organization tight while Peter leads national engagement. Archie is trusted across communities because he listens, solves problems, and follows through.
