## Resource

Barbados is tackling online rumors of “birth tourism” with calm authority—officials say ads promising citizenship via baby births are misleading, and data shows no surge in foreign births or residency applications. The island’s focus remains on its shrinking native birth rate, not foreign arrivals, while bolstering border security through regional cooperation and tech-enhanced surveillance to protect national interests.
