-
Enlist support for and understanding of the work of development NGOs from wider society.
-
Build ADA as an effective organization.
-
Undertake research and analysis into, and demonstrate alternative approaches to development.
-
Shape policies affecting the lives of people in Jamaica and the Caribbean region.
-
Bring community organizations more actively into the work of the Association.
