National Poverty Reduction Programme launched

The Planning Institute of Jamaica (PIOJ) and the Ministry of Economic Growth and Job Creation on Wednesday morning launched the National Poverty Reduction Programme.
 
The programme seeks to provide an accountability framework for national efforts to reduce poverty in Jamaica. 
 
It will seek to empower persons through the strengthening of economic livelihoods, human capital development, and addressing psychosocial, cultural and normative factors that influence poverty. 
 
The national programme will also seek to strengthen basic rural and urban community infrastructure and accelerate coordination and capacity building among service providers.
