  • Midterm Evaluation of Phase III of the Project Enhancing the Framework for the Development of a Heritage Economy in the Caribbean Report Final
    Midterm Evaluation of Phase III of the Project Enhancing the Framework for the Development of a Heritage Economy in the Caribbean Report Final Prepared for: Organization of American States Prepared by: Evan Green September 2019 Executive Summary This report presents the mid-term evaluation (MTE) of Phase III of the project “Enhancing the Framework for the Development of a Heritage Economy in the Caribbean” (EFDHEC). The MTE’s objectives are to (1) assess the progress and performance of Phase III of the Project and (2) determine to what extent the recommendations and lessons learned from the evaluation of Phase II were taken into account. The principle evaluation questions are based on four general criteria: relevance, efficiency, effectiveness and sustainability. Overall, the MTE concludes that Phase III of this project continue to completion. It is, however, strongly recommended that the Project be granted a 6-month no-cost extension to account for the 6-moth start-up delay and allow the Project to implement its planned timeline and that the OAS more closely and regularly monitor progress being made towards the existing targets and expected results. Summary conclusions related to each evaluation criterion are as follows: Relevance: The MTE confirms that the Project remains highly relevant for the Caribbean. Building on and integrating the lessons learned from previous phases, Phase III has further enhanced its relevance by focusing more at the community level and working more directly with governments. Effectiveness: The MTE found that overall progress made towards results is mixed for the Project. Given the early timing for MTE relative to the period of implementation, however, this was to be expected.

  • Are the Free Trade Zones Contributing to Decent Work? by Tina Renier Abstract
    Jamaican Development Strategies: Are the Free Trade Zones Contributing to Decent Work? By Tina Renier A Major Research Paper Submitted to Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts in International Development Studies December, 2019, Halifax, Nova Scotia Copyright Tina Renier, 2019 …………………………………… Approved: Dr. Suzanne Dansereau Professor Date of Submission: December 18, 2019 0 Jamaican Development Strategies: Are the Free Trade Zones Contributing to Decent Work? By Tina Renier Abstract Many developing countries have used export processing zones as central development strategies to attract foreign direct investment and to create employment However, a serious problem associated with export processing zones is the fact that workers, mainly women, have been subjected to low wages, deplorable working conditions, limited or no social security protection and freedom of association is strictly prohibited. Jamaica serves as a unique case study because it is a small island developing state in the Caribbean that faces serious development challenges due its fragile economy, growing population and dependence on foreign powers for international aid. The primary objective of the current Andrew Holness-led Administration of Jamaica is to promote economic growth through job creation in the business product outsourcing sector. The 2016 Special Economic Zones Act was introduced with a revised special incentive package to investment and create high value-added jobs in a new regime of zones. By using content analysis of online newspaper articles, I will argue that because, Jamaica’s current EPZ development strategy is heavily focused on using special incentives to attract foreign direct investment, it does not contribute to decent work.

We also take a closer look at Guyana’s pattern of trade with the Kingdom of The Netherlands, one of the country’s main markets within the Europe Union. The Market Insight delves further into the market of The Netherlands, ultimately with the objective of understanding the opportunities available to the Guyanese private sector for investment and increased trade with The Netherlands. As such, we examine the economic structure and performance of the economy, the business climate and key market entry factors for consideration, among other areas. The feature on The Netherlands emanates from the fact that the magazine chose to focus on the CARIFORUM- EU Economic Partnership Agreement and Guyana’s relations with the European Union. Our export success story, Amazon Caribbean, has been a consistent exporter to one of the leading markets in the European Union. As part of ‘Tip for Business Development’ in Guyana, we look at how to leverage global value chains in order to improve and diversify Guyana’s participation in global markets and consequently, its overall economic performance.

  • Status, Need and Role of Freshwater Storage in the Caribbean
    PERSPECTIVES PAPER STATUS, NEED AND ROLE OF FRESHWATER STORAGE IN THE CARIBBEAN MARCH 2021 This Perspectives Paper was prepared by Anika Cole and Dr. Adrian Cashman. It is intended to galvanise discussion within the GWP-C network and the larger water and development community. www.gwp-caribbean.org ABOUT GLOBAL WATER PARTNERSHIP-CARIBBEAN The vision of the Global Water Partnership-Caribbean (GWP-C) is for a water secure Caribbean. Our mission is to support Caribbean countries in the sustainable management of their water resources at the community, national and regional level. GWP-C is 1 of 13 Regional Water Partnerships of the Global Water Partnership (GWP). It was established in 2004 to foster the application of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) in the Caribbean region. IWRM is the coordinated development and management of water, land, and related resources, in order to maximise economic and social welfare without compromising the sustainability of ecosystems and the environment. Any organisation with an interest in water sustainability in the region, can become a GWP-C Partner. GWP-C currently has over 100 partners in more than 20 Caribbean countries. These include water management agencies, water user associations, private water management agencies, government institutions, academic and research institutions, private sector companies, non-governmental organisations, community-based organisations, civil society organisations, youth organisations, regional agencies, consultancy firms, among others.
