This infographic from Study 110 explores the role of Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) in driving sustainable development in the Caribbean. While STI is recognized as crucial for progress, the study finds that many Caribbean nations have yet to prioritize it, and existing policies remain underdeveloped. The current driver of change in the region is renewable energy, influenced by factors such as reliance on expensive imported fossil fuels, falling costs of renewable energy technologies, and international commitments to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To foster STI advancement, the study recommends promoting an STI culture, enhancing institutional support, increasing funding, integrating STI into education, and encouraging collaboration between governments, private sectors, and research institutions.

True or False: Are there gender inequalities in Education in the Caribbean? The infographic titled "Education Inequalities" explores gender disparities in education and employment across the Caribbean. It highlights notable progress in educational access, with both genders benefiting, especially in primary and secondary education. However, the data reveals that girls generally outperform boys academically, particularly in fields like biology, physics, and IT. On the other hand, boys excel in subjects such as mathematics and economics. A significant concern is the drastic drop in male participation at the tertiary education level, with women enrolling at almost twice the rate of men. This discrepancy raises critical questions about persistent gender gaps in employment and wages, despite women's higher educational achievements. The infographic emphasizes the importance of gender equality in achieving sustainable development goals and full human potential in the Caribbean.
