Chapter Chapter 6 in Jamaica’s Evolving Relationship with the IMF, 2021, pp 153-179 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Jamaica has an enviable track record of warmth and hospitality with a wide range of international development partners each with their own unique constitutive elements and institutional strengths. The country was very clear as early as four decades before its Independence that there would need to be dedicated focus on the development agenda—though this term was not yet popularized. The state of the population would not be transferred without the support of an external infusion of a wide range of resources that could be effectively brought to bear. This recognition, the results of Lord Moyne’s Commission to the troubled West Indies, the emergence of leaders with an appetite for development of the Jamaican state and its citizens culminated in the establishment of the PIOJ, the active engagement of the United Nations System and set the stage for the twenty-first-century development framework and partners that aim to Leave No One Behind.
