24, 2012, CDB, The World Bank (WB) and Inter-American Bank ...
During the Caribbean Development Bank¡¯s (CDB) forty second annual meeting held in Grand Cayman from May 2324, 2012, CDB, The World Bank (WB) and Inter-American Bank (IDB) formally signed a Memorandum of
Understanding to jointly support the work of the Caribbean Growth Forum (CGF). CGF aims to provide a platform for
dialogue around the growth challenge with a view to identifying solutions that inspire action. The CGF will be guided
strategically by a Steering Committee comprised of the Secretary General of CARICOM, President of the CDB, and
the Vice Chancellor of UWI.
"The Growth Forum, I have argued, is perhaps the singular most important space to share and explore avenues of
development for the Caribbean by bringing perspectives from inside and outside the region, and by allowing
perspectives from a broad cross section of Caribbean people to be heard and to be acted upon"....said Warren
Smith, CDB President.
The CGF is an initiative led by the IDB, WB, and CDB in close collaboration with the United Kingdom Agency for
International Development and the Canadian International Development Agency, to identify policies and initiatives
aimed at inducing growth and creating jobs in the Caribbean region through analytical work, knowledge exchange
and inclusive dialogue.
¡°Through dialogue, informed by strong analytics and exposure to global best practices, we hope that the region will
be able to chart a strategic direction towards knowledge and innovation-based growth. While this is entirely outside
the lifetime of the planned one year CGF initiative, our hope is that the proposed policies and new initiatives will be
implemented and create a launch pad to stimulate inclusive growth in the medium-term¡±....said Hasan Tuluy,
World Bank Regional Vice President for Latin America and the Caribbean
¡°We see growth as one of the most important conditions that will lead to improving the quality of life of the population,
alleviating poverty, conserving the natural resource base, and maintaining macro-economic stability¡±....said Joel
Branski, IDB Representative for Barbados
The Forum will engage a broad group of stakeholders, reaching beyond traditional constituencies to other critical
players in the dialogue on economic growth including the private sector, the youth, civil society and the Caribbean
Diaspora.
