CSME Workshop identifies gap

BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – THE gaps that exist between media practitioners and their audiences concerning education on the CARICOM Single Market and Economy (CSME), as well as the need for clarity on the subject matter, are two of the driving forces behind a two-day workshop being held at the St. Kitts Marriott.

The workshop is being held under the auspices of the CARICOM Secretariat CSME Unit as part of its CARICOM Trade and Competitiveness Project, which seeks to ensure that better and more opportunities are provided for the people of CARICOM and also benefitting from the CSME.
 
The interactive sessions brought the participating media personnel up to speed on developments within the CSME framework, stimulated thought on the way CSME-related issues are being reported or why they are not being reported and even encouraged introspection relative to personal branding.
 
Communications Specialist at the CARICOM Secretariat CSME Unit, Salas Hamilton explained to this publication that one of the legs of the CTCP is ensuring that stakeholders could participate in and understand the CSME, which is why media practitioners are among those being focused on during this exercise.
