Keios hired by the Caribbean Development Bank for the new Urban Sector Policy, Strategy and Operational Guidelines.
Keios is proud of having been selected by the Caribbean Development Bank to assist in the preparation of the new Urban Sector Policy, Strategy and Operational Guidelines.
Urbanisation is one of the characteristic features of the Borrowing Member Countries of the Caribbean Development, with the Caribbean being one of the more urbanised regions in the world. National and regional economies depend upon towns and cities for positive growth, where they provide jobs, access to the best cultural, educational and health facilities and they act as a hub for communication and transport which are necessary conditions for economic development.
Against this backdrop, the objective of the Project is to identify the key issues presently confronting and expected to confront the urban sector of CDB’s Borrowing Member Countries over the medium to long, and to assist in charting the role of the Bank in addressing those issues through development of an Urban Sector Policy and Strategy for CDB, and associated Operational Guidelines for the implementation of the strategy.
The results will be disseminated through delivery of a Regional Workshop on the Urban Sector.
