Persons living on Montserrat have the opportunity to participate and benefit from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) e-learning course on population dynamics and policy, beginning 1st May, 2024.
The Ministry of Finance and Economic Management (MoFEM) explained that this opportunity is made available through one of the deliverables of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Joint Fund Programme for Barbados and Montserrat. This particular deliverable addresses training of national counterparts on Population Mainstreaming in national development policies and programmes.
This e-learning by the UNFPA Latin America and the Caribbean Regional Office (LACRO) is designed to enhance technical capacities, promote best practices in understanding population dynamics and other significant megatrends that shape our future, as well as their implications for public policies.
As noted by the UNFPA, the course material offers concrete examples from Latin America and the Caribbean, thus ensuring a comprehensive grasp of these critical subjects that hold immense importance for our region.
