After a brief introductory presentation, the attendants broke into groups based on topic and reviewed a summary of all feedback that had been received up to that point. They then completed several engagement activities within each topic group. Attendants first completed the “Three Why” activity to understand the root causes of issues in Jamaica; and then shared their Ideas and Strategies for improvements in Jamaica, and adopted a “persona” to think about Ideas and Strategies from a different perspective
