The Environment, Rural Development, and Disaster Risk Management Division of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), in collaboration with the IDB Representation in Suriname, will held a seminar on Agricultural Policies in the Caribbean, which will be organized in Suriname, on July 25th, 2017.
The seminar will be an opportunity to gather policymakers from nine Caribbean countries (Barbados, Belize, Dominican Republic, Guyana, Haiti, Jamaica, Suriname, The Bahamas, and Trinidad and Tobago) to discuss the analyses of agricultural policies conducted in recent years by the Bank and the Governments of the Caribbean countries. During the seminar, agricultural policy experts will present the results of the analyses, in addition to related studies on the determinants of agricultural productivity and growth and impact evaluations of specific agricultural policies implemented in Latin America and the Caribbean. The discussion will be helpful to feed the dialogue on agricultural policies in the region and further enhance their effectiveness and efficiency. |
