About this title

Synopsis

Achieving sustainable development goals in Jamaican communities requires addressing persistent obstacles that have hindered progress in the past. This book examines how accessing loans and grants can help communities overcome these barriers, focusing on fostering accountability and sustainability in long-term initiatives. By investigating the impact of these funding sources on communities, it aims to shed light on essential strategies that maximize their benefits for community members.

In Jamaica, loans and grants are vital financial tools that support both economic and social development. Loans primarily empower economic growth by providing much-needed capital to local businesses and entrepreneurs, fueling job creation and financial stability. Grants, on the other hand, target social needs and fund community development projects that contribute to sustainable growth. The book presents an integrated approach, demonstrating how the complementary roles of loans and grants can uplift Jamaican communities, strengthening the path toward prosperity and equity.

The Book reveals a significant insight: many communities hesitate to utilize loans due to concerns about repayment obligations. This book encourages a shift in perspective, emphasizing that loans, like grants, can play an essential role in meeting community needs and building resilience.

Ultimately, this book serves as a resource for policy guidance, offering recommendations that foster community resilience through effective use of both loans and grants. It identifies key challenges and opportunities unique to Jamaica, providing a roadmap that stakeholders can adopt to enhance the impact of these financial resources on community development. Comprehensive analysis highlights ways to ensure these tools drive meaningful change in Jamaican and Caribbean communities, offering a unique and valuable contribution to the discourse on sustainable community development.
