September 30, representatives from both organizations expressed confidence that the formalization of their collaborative relationship would redound to the benefit of their member states.
“This agreement will allow us to converge our efforts and expertise and multiply the output of our shared objectives,” said Dr. Didacus Jules, Director General of the OECS Commission.
“The CTU has an unrivaled track record as an action-oriented organization and as the region’s premier telecommunications body. We are looking forward to collaborating more closely with them to develop strategies and practical initiatives to promote the interest and advancement of OECS member states through the effective use of information and communication technologies,” Jules added.
Nigel Cassimire, speaking on behalf of the CTU Secretary General, Bernadette Lewis, stated: “The CTU has a long history of supporting the sub-region in areas that include telecommunications policy formulation, spectrum management, internet exchange point proliferation, technical capacity building and public education on the development opportunities ICT presents. We fully expect our work in the sub-region to be strengthened by this agreement.”
