Through the years, RedHUCyT (http://www.redhucyt.oas.org/) became a major contributing force for the development of the Internet in Latin America and the Caribbean region. It collaborated and coordinated with academic institutions, governments, phone companies (PTT) and the private sector to create many of the first Internet points of presence (POPs) in this region. Essential to these developments were the local network managers and officers at participant institutions, and their dedicated teams of experts, who made these projects possible.en-USCreative Commons BY-NC-ND 4.0-USLatin America, Internet, Caribbean, Paraguay, Guatemala, Panama, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, BelizeOther
