Forum to find avenues for Caribbean construction in Haiti - Caribbean360
PORT OF SPAIN, Trinidad and Tobago, Friday December 17, 2010 – Next month will see a mass gathering in Trinidad of construction players from across the Caribbean looking to get in on ground in Haiti’s reconstruction efforts. The Caribbean Construction Forum, which is being held up by organisers as the first regional meeting of the construction sector, will gather together stakeholders to share perspectives and plan a roadmap for the reconstruction of Haiti following this year’s devastating earthquake that killed thousands of Haitians and destroyed much of Haiti’s capital and infrastructure. Early estimates by the Inter-American Development Bank placed reconstruction costs at US$14 billion. So far, mostly North American countries have been aggressively pursuing millions of dollars in rebuilding contracts with several United States government-sponsored forums being held across the US to guide American contractors on how to successfully bid for a contract.All Guadeloupe Resorts, Scuba diving centers, Hotels, Charters, Dive operators and Villas in our Caribbean scuba diving directory are listed below in alphabetical order by town.

Caribbean nationals eligible for European funded scholarships - Caribbean360
UWI is one of only two Caribbean partners in the Project, while European partners include institutions in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Sweden. ST AUGUSTINE, Trinidad, Wednesday December 1, 2010 – Caribbean nationals, including staff, postgraduate students and alumni of The University of the West Indies (UWI), can apply for scholarships available in the 2011 Mundus ACP Project led by the University of Porto, Portugal and sponsored by the European Commission. The Erasmus Mundus programme is a cooperation and mobility programme in higher education, which aims to promote partnerships between European and third-country higher education institutions by providing exchange and scholarship opportunities.Together with Anguilla, St Martin and St Barthélemy are the northernmost eastern Caribbean islands. The hilly interior is hemmed by 36 white sandy beaches, which fill a 60km long strip of bays and coves. Good exposure to northern swells and a mixture of sand, rock and coral breaks, make these islands a quality Caribbean surf trip, if you can afford it. St. Maarten is the smallest island in the world to be shared by two sovereign governments, with French Saint Martin taking-up about two-thirds of the landmass to the north and Dutch Sint Maarten to the south. The border is almost imperceptible but each side has managed to retain much of the distinctiveness of its own national culture.

Caribbean News Now!: Commentary: The EU and the Caribbean - An engagement of political discourse
By Rebecca Theodore As the Cold War languishes in the mausoleum of time, and twitching agonies of ghosts resonate in the void, reminding us of the long lived bi-polar days of the US and the Soviet Union, the European Union proves that it is a force to be reckoned with on the global international stage. Although not a nation state, the long-awaited Lisbon Treaty elevated its ranks to legally binding status and strengthened its foreign, security and defence policy even though the General Assembly recently sought to weaken its role in the UN. Hence, these developments come as guaranteed provisions, with political and diplomatic status to match the EU’s undoubted economic and commercial clout in the world at large. And now, the post-Cold War period, when the US was the only undisputed superpower, is over.

Caribbean Review of Books:
The Caribbean Review of Books (CRB) , edited by Nicholas Laughlin, is a bimonthly magazine covering Caribbean literature and arts. The original CRB was published from 1991 to 1994 by the University of the West Indies Publishers’ Association in Mona, Jamaica, and edited by Samuel B. Bandara. In May 2004, the CRB was revived by a team of writers and editors at MEP, led by Nicholas Laughlin and Jeremy Taylor. MEP published it until it was incorporated as a not-for-profit under the laws of Trinidad and Tobago in 2007. In 2010, the CRB was relaunched as a bimonthly online magazine.CARIBBEAN COMMUNITY (CARICOM) SECRETARIAT - HOME
