Situational Analysis on Drug Demand Reduction Issues in the Region

Activities of the Communication Plan for the CARICOM Youth Ambassador’s Programme – Towards the Sustainable Development of the Region - are
designed to increase awareness among young people of the importance of their role in the integration process.  Information will be disseminated to the relevant youth groups and structures through a combination of mediated and direct communication channels.

The current aim of CARICOM is to develop policies that encourage regional integration and transformation to the CSME. On the agenda to support the integration process is the full introduction of a tax harmonization framework. The harmful effects of tax competition have been the main stimuli for wanting to harmonize taxes. Tax structures and rates are important determinants for foreign and local businesses and consumers in deciding where to conduct investment operations.
