National ICT Strategic Plan x Government of St Kitts and Nevis Initiate a program for the systematic recording and presentation on quality web sites of our historical, cultural and natural heritage (e.g. museums, places of interest, etc.) x Ensure web streaming and if possible live diffusion on the Internet of major cultural events in the region. Harnessing ICT for making everyday life easier Segments of society or certain societal issues require special attention and measures to which the application of ICT can bring more effective solutions. In the mean time ICT application should, from the inception, cater for the particular requirements of persons with disabilities. The provision of practical information and guidance or special services to cope with the particular situations such as gender and age discrimination, incidence of disease (morbidity), disabilities, Diasporic relations, etc. in conjunction with related civil society organisations are among the contemplated activities. Related strategic moves are to: x Promote compliance of electronic resources with internationally recognised standards for accessibility by persons with disabilities. x Establish or expand public information and advice resources with related Internet-based resources for women in particular (e.g. about health, social benefits, child care, prevention of abuse, self-employment, geriatric care, etc.). x Liberalise the use of Internet telephony by individuals and its provision by all Internet Service Providers, at a reasonable cost, with a view to strengthening the interaction among families and social groups with members and affiliates abroad.
