According to the CARCOM Secretariat in Guyana, the Twenty-Fifth Intersessional Meeting of the Conference of Heads of Government of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) will be held 10-11 March, 2014, in St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
Heads of Government will focus especially on Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Human Resource Development and sustainable development of the Region’s economies during their two-day Summit.
A release from the Secretariat says, “As the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) continues to position itself to take full advantage of opportunities to spur economic growth and development and, by extension create the kind of environment in which its peoples are comfortable and safe, it has increased its focus on Information and communication technologies (ICTs) given the importance and pervasiveness of that sector.
Mindful of the way ICT has changed the entire global landscape, Heads of Government of CARICOM will direct their attention to ICT when they gather in St Vincent and the Grenadines for the 25th Intersessional Meeting.
At the two-day meeting which begins on March10, ICT will be twinned with Human Resource Development as the other key area of focus towards the Community’s sustainable economic development. The Community’s economic prospects will be considered and Heads of Government will receive recommendations from the Commission on the Economy which they had instituted following their last meeting in July 2013.
