DHInfrastructure prepared the terms of reference for consultancy services for a regionally harmonized policy framework for public private partnerships (PPP), and open access in broadband infrastructure. The framework established in the ToR reflected international best practice for PPPs and was tailored to complement existing national policies and institutional strengths and gaps, as were appropriate to the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. Included in this framework were recommendations for awareness and consensus building among stakeholders, and recommendations for the establishment and strengthening of institutions in Trinidad, Tobago, and other CARCIP participating countries, regarding the use of PPP to develop infrastructure.
