Jamaica Annual Report 2013/14

January 5, 2019

In 2013, the UNDP Jamaica office underwent a structural streamlining to meet the post 2015 development Agenda and the evolving national priorities led by the global changes as well as those led by the Economic Reform Programme under the Stand-By arrangement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). We are pleased to communicate that UNDP Jamaica is the first and currently the only country office that has moved away from sectoral programmatic silos to cross -cutting domains in an attempt to address development in an integrated manner and meet its focus on three substantive areas of work, viz.,i. How to adopt sustainable development pathways;
ii. How to build and/or strengthen inclusive and effective democratic governance; and
iii. How to build resilience, each of which, when applied together, will contribute to a number of transformational outcomes.
The Government of Jamaica has also requested the United Nations to “Deliver as One.” Drawing on the guidance provided by the Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review (QCPR) and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), we have already initiated this important process. The UN system in Jamaica stands ready to support Jamaica’s transformation programmes as they catalyze the achievement of Vision 2030, Jamaica.
