Information Communication Technology: Taking Responsibility for Development

Contact: Michel Serieux

Friday, August 20, 2004 - The Ministry of Communications, Works Transport and Public Utilities has strongly urged all members of the telecommunications and information fraternity to take responsibility for the country’s development, by participating in the 8^th Telecommunications Policy Seminar (TPS 8) to be hosted by the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU) in Barbados on September 14 -15 this year.

The Seminar, which will be held under the theme “ICTs: Creating Opportunities for Progress” is targeting a wide cross section of the information and communication technology sector, including public and private sector agencies and officials, policy makers, regulators, operators, service providers and representatives from the academic fraternity.

The CTU has embarked on this initiative in recognition of the crucial role of information technology for the development of the Caribbean Region. Among its objectives, the CTU seeks to identify the challenges facing Caribbean Governments in ensuring that citizens are able to benefit from advancements in communications technologies in all sectors.

The CTU invites interested persons to contact the organization at www.c-t-u.org or ctunion@c-t-u.org.
