Digital Inclusion in the Caribbean

What we are looking for:
-
Share with us why you think that increased access to digital services, technologies, and skills is important for these Eastern Caribbean countries.
-
Feel free to send your thoughts in an email, or you could take a picture where your thoughts are legibly expressed on a printed or handwritten sign. BUT, videos where you have your say are preferred.
-
Videos and photos should be high resolution, and videos shouldn’t be longer than 1 minute. For written submissions, 10-30 words are ideal. Feel free to be creative and bear in mind that there will be an international audience.

Tips for Video Submissions:
-
Horizontally filmed (not vertical)
-
Frame includes the head, shoulders and upper torso
-
Find a spot where the light comes from the front, so the face isn’t backlit (no windows in back unless you have a good front light to counter it)
-
Looking into the camera
-
No background noise
-
Look for a neutral background, but one with some personality
Here is a good example:
How to send your submission:
-
Send an email to cwright2@worldbank.org with your content, your name and your country. Videos may be large, consider sending them through a file-sharing programme like WeTransfer or Dropbox.
-
Send your submission by June 15 ( a grace period of two additional days until June 17 has been applied. )
