The event was publicized by local and regional media. There were several items of coverage by the Trinidad Guardian in their electronic media, and regional coverage by ICT Pulse which serves the Caribbean region out of Jamaica. Additionally ICANN Caribbean Manager, Albert Daniels was interviewed about the event on the number one TV station in Trinidad and Tobago, TV6, by a very popular host. There was also coverage of the event in social media.
Attendees
There were approximately 30 high quality attendees from the stakeholder groups of Business, Government, Technical Community, Academic Community, Civil Society and end users. The groundwork for the establishment of a national multistakeholder dialogue has been firmly set with some participants agreeing to personally move the process forward, and this has been supported by the Minister of Science and Technology who announced afterwards that his Cabinet has agreed on formalizing the internal policy model to address the public policy aspects of the Internet and this will be pursued through an open dialogue process with stakeholders.
