DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS

Joint Declaration of Intent (DoI) between the United Nations Resident Coordinator’s Office (UNRCO) and the University of the West Indies(The UWI). A joint Declaration of Intent (DoI) between the UNRCO and the UWI – spearheaded by the Department of Economics – has been developing for a while. The UWI is the first University in the region that the UNRCO has approached with this DoI. This DoI essentially stipulates a voluntary agreement between both parties to work together. After the Declaration of Intent is signed, the UNRCO and the UWI will work on an MoU to formalise the initiatives. The signatories intend to collaborate broadly to support SDG acceleration in the region and the Strategic Plan of the University of the West Indies, Mona on a non-exclusive basis in areas of common interest. The proposed date for the signing of the DoI is October 10, 2023.
