Non
Si oui, quelles sont les principales conclusions/recommandations ?: 

The main findings over the years is that the festival provides the opportunity for community groups to develop and hone their talents and skills, and ultimately is a stepping stone to becoming a professional in the Cultural and Creative Industries. Improvements can be made where entry levels are low, in areas like traditional folk forms. As such, the JCDC has improved the amount of workshop training sessions held annually. The festival attracts particpants across the island and amounts to approximately 70% particpation from high schools in each Parish.
