The hidden potential of Caribbean nations, from Cuba to Jamaica, in science and technology (S&T) is now being harnessed and exploited with the help of the European Union.
Comprising a collection of island nations such as Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Guadeloupe, Grenada, Jamaica and Netherlands Antilles, the Caribbean region holds much hidden research and innovation potential. The EU-funded project ''fostering European Union - Caribbean research and innovation networks'' (EUCARINET) is exploiting this potential to the benefit of both regions.
