This data layer was created as part of the project to map interventions from International Development Partners in the most volatile or vulnerable communities in Jamaica. It will help to inform monitoring and evaluation of the Community Renewal Programme.

The layer represents interventions through the Poverty Reduction Programme IV (PRP-IV). Jamaica Social Investment Fund is currently implementing PRP-IV, which is a 48 month programme of assistance, costing 12.54 million euro. The programme commenced November 7, 2014 and will end on November 6, 2018. Funding for the PRP-IV is provided jointly by the European Union and the Government of Jamaica. PRP-IV is designed to build on the PRP-II and the PRP-III and contribute to inclusive growth and equitable development; by promoting economic well-being and enhanced quality of life for residents of volatile communities.

Please note that data on expenditure are rounded figures. Also, expenditure is reported 'en bloc' which means data may not necessarily represent expenditure in that community only. The data layer will be updated periodically (every 6 months), which means projects status can change before the layer is officially updated.
