HIPCAR Project was conceived by the ITU, the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) Secretariat and the Caribbean Telecommunication union (CTU) in response to requests from CARICOM States and other ICT stakeholders who saw the need for a more unified approach to the subject.
HIPCAR was designed to support the Caribbean countries in improving their competitiveness by harmonizing approaches to ICT development. It brought together the Caribbean governments, regulators, service providers, civil society, private sector, regional and international organizations involved in ICT.
The Project provided guidelines for harmonized policies and legislations in accordance with the unique methodology that were specifically elaborated for the Project.
