Citation preview
“NETWORKING”
The solutions to most of the world´s problems must be addressed – in collaboration– among interdisciplinary teams– as global projects, addressing local and regional
information and participation
“NETWORKING”
e-SCIENCE, e-LEARNING, e-CULTURE, e-INNOVATION
Thanks to the advanced academic networks, institutions are not limited to the usage of their local resources for developing their projects: human resources, processing
capacity, storage capacity, remote labs. and instruments, …
are now available.
The boundaries are those of the world itself.
The key words are “collaboration” and “alliances”
CKLNCaribbean Knowledge Learning Network
CKLN's strategic objective is to enhance global competitiveness of the Caribbean by upgrading and diversifying the skills and knowledge of human resources in the region through greater regional collaboration and connectivity.
RENATA AND CLARA
RENATA
The advanced collaboration platform
for developingeducation, research,

academic networks ~90
Interesting facts about RENATA
• Started operatios in 2.007 : almost last (12/13) country to get connected to CLARA.
• “Best research national portal”, years 2.009, 2.010 and out of contest 2.011. • 2.010: OAS stated RENATA as one of the big players
within acadmic networks in LA with Brasil, Chile and Argentina.
• RENATA is included in about six national policies (CT&I, ICT, Ministry of Education, Competitivenes …)

NEXT activity : Services/applications/projects list
1. Make a list of the applications, services or projects of major interest.2. Prioritize. 3. For each one, define where you consider they should be offered? CKLN?, NRENs?, institutions?.
NEXT activity : Services/applications/projects list
Let´s separate the initiatives into four groups (*) :
• Applications and services – Communications (*) – VC, IPtelephony…– Support services (*) – training, – Sharing Resources (*) – human, contents, instruments,…
• Projects– Supporting CARICOM´s strategies.– Specific areas: health, education, climate, culture,
agriculture, Bio´s, social sciences, astronomy,… (*)– Institutional interests
Ideas of projects (Martha Giraldo)• Astronomy – capturing and transmitting images -
Picture taken in Barbados Island by the British Damian Peach. It shows Jupiter´s flux of gases and two of its´ satellites. http://noticias.latam.msn.com/co/fotogaleria_bbc.aspx?cp-documentid=30775053&page=1
• Colaboration with CLARA or with any of its associated countries once identified project opportunities.
• What if CKLN or its NREN’s prepare a collaboation project to give english classes to LatinAmerican students and viceversa (spanish)?
Some recommendations
CKLN
CKLN and its members, should conduct the process for making C@ribNET the main base tool for developing CARICOM strategies and plans,– Taking advantage of the new possibilities
/opportunities – Knowing that “unity is strength”. Globalization is real. – Empowering democracy, equity and development for
the Carribbean.– Forge competitiveness of the region.
• How should CARICOM countries be organized as NRENs in order to help the process?
• Where will the economies of scale, budgets, human resources be allocated?
• How will solidarity, equity be adressed?• Should you have different types of NRENs?
(*) Picture taken from Blue Prints study (Telecom Telematique)
BUT…
Recommendations, points of view
– CKLN is different from CLARA – You have CARICOM´s opportunity. LA doesn´t have such an organism. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS!!.
– CKLN is different from RENATA. Although it works with 8 local REN´s , it serves a country.
• Pave your own road, take advantage of other initiatives, find the opportunities and the ways collaborate.
Recommendations, points of view
• CKLN have the conditions for developing a Caribbean Knowledge Learning Network. That is the goal. I don´t know any other networks committed into that. ( It is much more than a network that supports knowledge, learning…)
• There are already important studies done for the Caribbean (Blue prints, ICT4Development, etc.) and has funded a lot of regional collaboration and consultation initiatives. Communication and colaboration instruments were lacking pieces. Take this initiatives into real consideration, get organized, plan and pave the road.
Recommendations, points of view
• Don´t expect short term results.
• CKLN can do a leap frog. (???).
• Continue your important efforts related to the use of the infrastructure for improving learning and teaching processes as well as distance education.
Final recommendation
• Each one of you should promote an activity within the personnel of your institution, puting them to think on how to take advantage of the opportunities behind this new infrastructure and services?
• For innovation, research, education and culture?
THANK YOU !
