finalizes all aspects of the CEPNET/IDB Project. Further country workshops in each one of the participating countries are planned to resolve remaining technical issues and to promote the Project in the media.   A regional workshop for the Country Coordinators was held in Kingston in early December for the English speaking countries, and is planned for late January for the Spanish speaking countries. These workshops will enable the Country Coordinators to share experiences and to tackle issues relating to project sustainability.  Sustainability will be an important focus for the ending period of the project, as the participating countries and the CEPNET Team will work together to ensure that the clearinghouse node Web sites become dynamic and self-sustaining  in each country.  There was also a meeting of the 2 Project advisory groups, the Programming and Evaluation Committee (PEC) and the Technical Advisory Group (TAG).  The PEC and TAG meetings were combined in a session on December 3rd in Kingston.
