As climate change impacts our weather patterns, we need to be proactive in identifying the steps to build resilience in our food supply systems, as an important part of the overall strategy for dealing with the impacts of more extreme climatic events. As Prime Minister, Sista P had the vision to establish Climate Change as a specific ministerial portfolio responsibility as far back as 2012, and we will build on the work that started then to continue to prepare Jamaica for what is to come.

As a man thinketh, so is he! Sharing some thoughts today on theories and ideas that have formed around his he cultural and creative industries and economy that is making it central to sustainable development and economic growth, globally. #connectthedots
Praxis and is balancing philosophy and practice… it is critical in understanding the cultural and creative industries. That is which is just that, balancing products of the imagination and systems of business. #connectthedots
Theories of social justice are the most recent ones to factor in discussions about cultural and creative industries. There is a theory that it is in it a ‘diversity phase’. And describes the directions the sectors are moving in ‘on the ground’. #connectthedots
Neoliberalism is another contemporary construct/theory that has influenced the industrialization of cultural production ie creative industries. It describes the variant of capitalism that influenced the commercialization of cultural production & service provision #connectthedots
The ‘creative economy’ as we know it emerged from a critical theory ‘the culture industry’ from the post war Frankfurt School of cultural studies. It evolved as time passed based on theories of cultural economics et Al. Now the world is dependent on its realities #connectthedots
Jamaica Welfare, JCDC (Festival) & CPTC are three sustainable programmes based on policies that were developed specifically for the deepening of national identity and confidence/esteem building, pre and post colonial periods. #decolonization was the idea #connectingdots
