Renaldo Cartwright
Renaldo Cartwright is the founder of Marijuana Bahamas, an advocacy group focused on the decriminalization and regulation of cannabis in the Bahamas. Since its establishment in 2015, the organization has campaigned for reforms in cannabis legislation, emphasizing the need for a legal framework to protect individuals who use cannabis for medical and religious purposes. Recently, Cartwright criticized the Bahamian government for failing to allocate funding for cannabis regulation in its 2025/2026 budget, claiming this reflects a lack of commitment to the reforms that were passed nearly a year ago.
