Finding
Jamaica’s local authorities participated in defining the National Development Plan "Vision 2030 Jamaica" and its implementation strategy, the "Medium-Term Socio-Economic Policy Framework (2018-2021)." Local governments also joined the "Strengthening local government's role as a partner in development," a European Union-funded project to help local authorities build leadership, institutional and operational capacities to implement the SDGs. The combined result of enhanced local capacities and open space for work at the national level was reflected in the adoption of new local sustainable development plans aligned with the national development plan and the 2030 Agenda.
