The Caribbean region is continuing to show meaningful progress in the ways in which governments conduct business and provide public services, through the adoption of digital transformation strategies. According to the 2022 United Nations E-Government Development Index (EGDI), all member states of the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) surveyed, except Haiti, placed in the “High” development group1. Nevertheless, citizen impatience with the pace of digital reforms and their ongoing preference for accessing public services through non-digital channels continue to be formidable challenges, requiring more ambitious and nuanced digital transformation agendas. To deliver on these new agendas, regional knowledge exchanges on digital policy development, that leverage the successes and insights gained from each country’s journey, are critical.
The partners in this event wish to create an enabling space for the region’s most senior policymakers with portfolio responsibility for digitalisation, in which they can address collaboratively some of the most common impediments faced in the digital transformation of the state. By contributing, from their unique set of competencies, knowledge and professional experiences, these executives will learn from each other and enhance the knowledge base for Caribbean digital policy and practice
