Jamaica dag 1

With UNDP in Jamaica

His Royal Highness Crown Prince Haakon is visiting Jamaica this week. The Crown Prince is traveling as a goodwill ambassador for UNDP – the United Nations Development Programme – a role he has held since 2003.

Jamaica is vulnerable to natural disasters and extreme weather, and Hurricane Beryl caused significant destruction when it hit the country in July. The Crown Prince will meet many people who are affected by climate change in the region in various ways, such as the fishermen from Rocky Point.

Sustainable solutions for the ocean, climate, and poverty are important topics during the visit.
