Description of the policy/measure

The main feature of this measure is to give new and emerging reggae bands international exposure. this measure is in partnership with other countries with unesco creative city designation. a complete cylce would see a jamaican band visiting and performing in a creative city, and a band from that country would in turn visit and perform in jamaica.

Results achieved

Thus far we have completed full band exchanges with hannover, germany and beijing, china. the selected jamaican bands are now professional touring bands.

Financial resources allocated to the policy
