LinkTT, fostering digital literacy and access across Trinidad and Tobago.
LinkTT, a George Pont Initiative, is a transformative project dedicated to bridging the digital divide in Trinidad and Tobago. We recognize the critical role that digital access and literacy play in the modern world, ensuring individuals and communities can thrive in an increasingly digital society. Our mission focuses on providing equitable access to digital technologies, enhancing connectivity, and fostering digital skills across all demographics.
In Trinidad and Tobago, a significant digital divide affects primarily middle and low-income households, restricting access to essential digital tools and internet connectivity. This divide impacts over 30% of households, limiting opportunities in education, healthcare, and economic advancement.
