Govt, UN team up on Vision 2030

The major objective of this important exercise is to engage the Government, national stakeholder groups and a UN team over a seven day period in these sessions to support the integration and the mainstreaming of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into TT’s National Development Strategy 2016-2030, Vision 2030.

This is in keeping with the promise of the Government to develop a national strategy focusing on national development in keeping with the global SDGs.

Once complete, a Mission Report will be presented, as well as a SDGs Roadmap for TT. Elements of the SDGs roadmap for the Government should include the identification of priority areas for development acceleration.

The ministry said pre-Mission research has highlighted some areas as priority areas for development acceleration.

These include inclusive economic growth (labour market reform, decent work, macroeconomic stability, employment); energy security and efficiency, national security and reform of the justice system
