  • Technical Report Prepared by Professor Dale Webber and Dr. Claudel Noel Centre for Environmental Management September 2013
    THE UNIVERSITY OF THE WEST INDIES, MONA CAMPUS CENTRE FOR ENVIRONRMENTAL MANAGEMENT PUBLIC CONSULTATIONS ON DEFINING THE BOUNDARIES OF THE COCKPIT COUNTRY Technical Report Prepared by Professor Dale Webber and Dr. Claudel Noel Centre for Environmental Management September 2013 FUNDED BY i EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The main goal of this project was to initiate, manage and facilitate a public consultation process on defining the boundary of the Cockpit Country. The research team collected the views and opinions of the various stakeholders regarding the UWI proposed boundary in relation to other proposed boundaries which were referred by the UWI research team. In addition, a new boundary proposed for the Cockpit Country by relevant Governmental authorities and stakeholders in 2009 as well as previous proposed boundaries that were inadvertently omitted by the UWI research team were included in the discussion. A mixed methodology was used combining qualitative and quantitative tools and instruments of empirical data collection. However, the public consultation primarily fell within the qualitative methodological paradigm. A total of 18 community public consultation meetings were organised within the Cockpit Country. Some neighbouring communities were joined together instead of holding a separate meeting in each district or community. A flexible questionnaire was administered to few members of each community in order to complement the qualitative information that was collected during the public consultation meetings. THREE Town Hall meetings outside the Cockpit Country were held in Santa Cruz, Montego Bay, and Kingston. The research team also conducted a number of structured and unstructured interviews with Ministries and Governmental agencies, key stakeholders from the Cockpit Country Stakeholders’ Group, other Non-Governmental Organisations, experts from the academic community and few private land owners.
