Evidence snapshot for Trinidad and Tobago
Trinidad and Tobago has implemented a multi-faceted digital inclusion strategy targeting historically excluded groups. The country runs 14 free ICT Access Centres and the WeLearnTT e-learning platform with 4,150+ enrolments, while 1,239 persons with disabilities have received subsidised assistive-feature smartphones against a baseline where only 57.3% of disabled residents owned mobile phones. The evidence also documents 2,500+ citizens registered across 80+ communities through LearnTT, with over 100 seniors aged 55–92 trained in digital literacy in August 2024. Beyond digital access, Trinidad and Tobago has addressed gender-based violence through the Spotlight Initiative (2019–2023) and a National Strategic Action Plan on GBV (2023–2027).
