On the 1st of June, the partners officially launched the website for this project www.llo-caribbean.orgThe purpose of this platform and project is to strengthen governance throughout the Dutch Caribbean.

This platform offers a collaborative view of higher educational modules to strengthen administrative capacity in the different sectors on the islands through courses, workshops and masterclasses. These consist of existing courses that are offered across different programs at partner universities. Moreover, courses are offered in different formats such as face-to-face, hybrid or completely online, making it more accessible. Through this platform we aim to promote lifelong learning to all professionals looking to acquire knowledge and skills, developing themselves further. The strength of this partnership also lies in the different perspectives across the countries, including local context and culture while also keeping an international lens.
