Report ID: 445
Jamaica’s adoption of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015 reinforced the country’s commitment to the goals of its Vision 2030 Jamaica - National Development Plan (NDP) developed in 2009, which seeks to make Jamaica “the place of choice to live, work, raise families, and do business”. An assessment of Jamaica’s national planning documents by the Planning Institute of Jamaica (PIOJ) and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) revealed that Vision 2030 Jamaica - NDP, the MediumTerm Socio-Economic Policy Framework (MTF) and sectoral policies are 91.3 per cent aligned with the SDGs.
