GREAT BAY, Sint Maarten (DCOMM) – Next week four Community Based Dialogues sessions are scheduled.  In order to continue to engage the community with respect to the development of the National Development Program, the first session for the week is on Monday, May 19 for residents of lower and upper Cul de Sac.  The session will be held the Seventh Day Adventist Church from 6.30pm to 10.30pm.

The second session is for the residents of Little Bay and surroundings scheduled for Wednesday, May 21 at the Christian Hillside Asha Stevens Campus in Cay Hill during the same aforementioned hours.

The third session is for the residents of Belvedere and will take place on Thursday, May 22 at the Belvedere Community Center, 6.30 pm to 10.30pm.  This session was originally planned for this past Monday however due to inclement weather it has been rescheduled. 

The fourth session is for the residents of Simpson Bay, Beacon Hill and Cupecoy on Friday, May 23 at the same time as the other sessions.  A venue will be announced next week.

This micro and macro public consultation process with community stakeholders will continue until the end of June with communities, schools, the private sector, unions, non-governmental organizations, and Government.  The majority of voices reflecting the diversity of the country’s society will be captured.

The persons who attend these dialogue sessions have the opportunity to engage in fruitful discussions about what affects us socially, economically, culturally, and environmentally throughout the country.

In addition, persons will be able to find solutions which will help to improve the lives of those who live in the country.  The thoughts and ideas expressed in these dialogues will be captured into the National Development Plan.  The contribution made to the development of this plan will hopefully make persons feel a sense of ownership for putting this document in place.

The National Development Plan is facilitated under the auspices of the project, “Building a Nation: Sint Maarten National Development Plan & Institutional Strengthening.”

The Ministry of General Affairs, Department of Interior and Kingdom Relations (BAK) are providing key support for the NDP process along with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP).
