2.0 Vision 2030 Jamaica
Before delving into economic analytics, I would like to briefly engage us in why we
should. As you recall, beginning in mid-2000 under the PNP administration and
subsequently embraced, supported, and launched in 2007 under the current JLP
administration, Vision 2030 Jamaica – National Development Plan is a product of
comprehensive national discussions with stakeholders across political, religious,
business, government, non-government and civil society divide. It conciliates our
aspirations as a nation around four realistic national goals that integrate economic, social,
cultural and environmental dimensions. These are:
1. To empower Jamaicans to achieve their fullest potential
2. To make the Jamaican society secure, cohesive and just
3. To make the Jamaican economy prosperous
4. To make the Jamaican natural environment healthy.
