Get to Know Trinidad Director Ruth Lawrence
Our Trinidad & Tobago office is part of our outreach to to the English-speaking parts of the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Trinidad, Tobago, Barbados, the Cayman Islands, St. Kitts, Antigua, the Bahamas, Belize, St. Vincent, Dominica and Guyana.
Facts:
- Though two separate islands, roughly 20 miles apart, Trinidad and Tobago are a single nation. (The capital city of Port-of-Spain is located on the island of Trinidad.)
- With a population of 1.3 million, 80% of all Trinidad and Tobago residents are of African and Indian descent. In order to respect this religious mix, the country recognizes at least one annual holiday for each major religion, totaling 16 public holidays each year.
