A Strategy For Growth And Sustainable Development
posted (April 7, 2016)
How can Belizeans have a better quality of life now and in the future? Well the Government's Growth and Sustainable Development Strategy outlines specific goals that should secure that quality of life. The strategy incorporates ways to drive the economy forward, to improve government policies and citizen security and to better protect the environment among other key areas. Now another report that sort of compliments this new strategy is the World Bank Group Report called " Belize: Right Choices, Bright Future." Today at the official launch we spoke to Lead Economist Francisco Carneiro and he told us that Belize has quite a few areas to improve on especially financial sustainability.

And the Government agrees. Today Minister of Economic Development Erwin Contreras further outlined those areas of improvement but also highlighted the achievements so far.

The strategy will be implemented for 3 years.
