Technology alone will not transform the Caribbean region, and neither is it a silver bullet. What Caribbean countries must do is to think more strategically about their digital transformation: key inputs and strategies ought to be deployed, whilst also being intentional and managing the impact on society.
With Dr Karen Abrams, the Co-Founder of STEMGuyana and newspaper columnist, we discuss, among other things,
* why STEM should be among the national developmental priorities;
* reforms she would recommend to Caribbean policymakers to better prepare children for the jobs of the future;
* how Caribbean parents can better prepare their children for an AI-enabled future; and
* why economic growth alone does not necessarily create competition or innovation.
