JAMP is a non-partisan, non-government and not-for-profit company dedicating itself to improved governance in Jamaica.
In a democracy, citizens’ responsibility goes beyond voting for a political representative, paying taxes and obeying the country’s laws. Citizens have an important role to play as part of the country’s oversight system, helping to keep in check the enormous power that governments have, especially over the use of our tax dollars and therefore the quality of our lives.
We pay more taxes in Jamaica than in many countries around the world. And though there are improvements, still, hospital beds are scarce, police stations and courts are ill-equipped, communities lack bridges and for
decades media headlines continue to speak of the significant lack and waste.
JAMP sets out to harness the power of citizen engagement, monitoring and oversight to improve PUBLIC FINANCIAL ACCOUNTABILITY.
JAMP is run by an enthusiastic, dedicated bunch of hopeful thinkers and doers who know that our just being Jamaican – means we can and will make a difference.
We are banking on the fact, that like us, other citizens of Jamaica care, and are willing to try something different in order to achieve a different outcome.

Improve Public Service Delivery
We work to achieve greater value from our taxes and to influence improvement in the delivery of public goods and services. We seek to do this by challenging inefficiency and waste and exposing potential fraud and corruption in the stewardship of public funds and assets.

GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE
JAMP’s intent is to practice what it preaches. It is governed by a board of directors who oversee the organisation’s activities, are responsible for ensuring delivery of the strategic objectives and outcomes and ensure that the organisation complies with all relevant legal and statutory requirements. All Directors give their time and expertise on a voluntary unsalaried basis. JAMP’s daily operations are managed by an Executive Director and a small team.
