Policy Brief: Moving towards equal access to technology for persons with disabilities in the Caribbean

18 Oct 2019 | Publication

In the Caribbean, there are approximately 1.3 million persons with a disability of some kind and some 250,000 persons with a significant disability. These numbers are projected to increase dramatically in the coming decades as the population of the subregion ages and given the global increase in chronic health conditions.

Atlas of migration in Northern Central America

10 Dec 2018 | Publication

Throughout history, international migration has held opportunities for migrants, their families and communities, and the countries involved.

Migration from the countries of Northern Central America (NCA), comprising El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, is shaped by economic factors such as wage and production gaps between countries, by natural disasters and b…
