Four municipalities and two Neighbourhood Democratic Councils (NDCs) recently signed Memoranda of Understanding (MoU) with the Caribbean Local Economic Development Project (CARILED), which will allow for CARILED to engage in a more focused manner over the coming months to strengthen its collaboration with the local authorities.

Signatories to the MoU were the Mayors of Linden, New Amsterdam, Rose Hall and Corriverton, and representatives from the NDCs of Mocha Arcadia and Soesdyke, and the Project Director of CARILED, Marion Villenueva, according to a press release from the Ministry of Communities.
