The sustainable economic development model that GSJHCC is developing has gained recognition by the US Department of Commerce, US State Department, the Overseas Private Investment Corporation,  EXIM Bank, and foreign governments in Latin America, Africa and Europe.   This model consists of promoting sustainable economic development through international trade and investment among the members of the GSJHCC and their partners in the host countries.  The model supports all the goals of the United Nations Millennium Development Goals which are:

1. Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger
2. Achieve Universal Primary Education
3. Promote Gender Equality and Empower Women
4. Reduce Child Mortality
5. Improve Maternal Health
6. Combat HIV/AIDS Malaria and other diseases
7. Ensure environmental Sustainability
8. Global Partnership for Development  

The chamber is managed and operated by micro and small business owners on a voluntary basis.   GSJHCC members participate in training programs to prepare them to conduct business in the international markets and develop sustainable communities in developing nations.   GSJHCC members invest their time, know-how, and money to develop projects eligible for funding from the US Federal Agencies and International Organizations.  GSJHCC members, with the support of the Chamber, form corporations in the United States with the purpose of accessing capital and form joint ventures to develop sustainable communities with other micro and small entrepreneurs in emerging economies. Since most of our members are multicultural they are able to form partnerships and create goodwill with partners in other places of the world.
