Moreover, higher education institutions and bodies are also reviewing their existing educational policies to integrate OER in them, by changing the types of licensing, participating or creating OER repositories.
The CKLN and the Caribbean NRENs were supported through the ACP Connect Project, from April to October 2013, with the aim to successfully launch them, linking through C@ribNET, to each other and to the international research and education networks. To fully achieve this, it is fundamental to have dedicated high capacity broadband networks in place, at national and Caribbean level, supported among others by ICT, ODL and OER Policies. The Caribbean suffers from a double ultra-peripheral situation, islands away from mainland and separated from each other, posing enormous challenges to their economic and human development. In the Caribbean region, the use/development of Open Educational Resources is still in a very embryonic stage.
