Introduction and Background
The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Commission and the Governments of Grenada, Dominica, Saint Lucia, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines are implementing a World-Bank-financed Caribbean Digital Transformation Project ("CARDTP"), which aims to increase access to and use of digital services, technologies and skills by governments, businesses, and individuals in the Eastern Caribbean countries.
Component 1 of CARDTP - Digital Enabling Environment seeks to develop an enabling environment for the region’s digital economy increasing competition, investment, and innovation while promoting trust and security of online transactions. A sub-component contemplates, among others, the bolstering of the legal and regulatory environment, institutions, and capacity to build trust in online transactions and strengthen the security and resilience of digital infrastructure and systems, centered on data protection and privacy.
Component 3 of CARDTP- Digital Skills and Technology Adoption, aims to better equip individuals and businesses across the region for the jobs and economy of the future. The project will adopt a regional approach, aiming to capture economies of scale in specialized digital skills development programs and to create a pool of advanced digital talent to better position the region to attract investment by digital firms.
This is to address the identified challenge that high educational outcomes in the region have not translated into the development of the skills needed in the digital era. Building digital skills and creating a stronger local and regional market for them will be critical to tackling the region’s unemployment challenges and maintaining competitiveness in the global economy of the future. Traditional education institutions are not producing enough graduates with the workforce-ready technical and "soft" skill sets in growing demand from digitally enabled industries. Women and girls are less likely to participate in STEM courses as a result of prevailing social norms, making them less prepared for the most promising digitally enabled fields of employment. Much of the top talent developed leaves the islands to pursue opportunities in the larger regional markets or globally, while those that stay do not fully utilize their skill sets. The high costs of investment in specialized digital skills are also a challenge, suggesting that a regional approach is needed to share costs and expertise to create a pool of digital talent to attract investment and support technology adoption by traditional industries.
The high educational outcomes of the OECS have not translated into a local talent pool that provides these countries with the capacity to leverage digital technologies for sustained economic growth, reduction of social challenges, and improved benefits for citizens. In this regard the Market Assessment for the demand and supply of digital skills in the OECS revealed that there is a greater need to facilitate advanced level certification to meet the skills gaps in the marketplace. Against this backdrop, CARDTP is assisting Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines to enhance their capacity to engage more effectively in the global digital economy.
CARDTP seeks to use digital transformation to strengthen the economic viability of the participating countries in the global economy and position them to eliminate persistent gaps in social vulnerability, support the move towards quality employment outcomes as well as tackle weak institutional capacity. The project also seeks to ensure that the citizens of the participating countries can access and obtain the relevant digital skills and literacy to adopt new technologies and participate fully in the digital economy. This includes basic digital skills and competencies, which empower individuals to interact online, consume digital goods and services, and advanced and specialized digital skills; enabling the workforce to effectively utilize technologies for enhanced productivity, innovations and entrepreneurships, digital transformation of public and private sector, and economic growth.
Goal
The overall goal of this consultancy is to create a pool of advanced and specialized digital talent to better position the region to attract investments by digital firms and to enable OECS citizens to access remote working opportunities globally.
