The integration of Richès Karayib into the Caribbean Broadcasting Union (CBU) marks a new stage in the development of Caribbean media. This membership formalizes Richès Karayib’s regional roots and reinforces its determination to actively contribute to the structuring of the Caribbean media landscape.

The Caribbean Broadcasting Union, a pillar of the Caribbean media landscape

A strategic step for Richès Karayib

Since its creation, Richès Karayib has been promoting culture, heritage, tourism and the women and men who shape the Caribbean’s attractiveness and influence. Membership of the Caribbean Broadcasting Union consolidates this trajectory by opening up new prospects:

  • – publishing cooperation on a regional scale

  • – enhanced visibility with institutional and economic players

Joining the Caribbean Broadcasting Union also enables Richès Karayib to place its productions within a demanding regional framework, where content quality, journalistic rigor and editorial impact are decisive.

Building a structured Caribbean media space

The Caribbean is rich in talent, culture and initiative. However, content produced in one territory is still not widely distributed to other islands and countries in the region. One of the major challenges of the Caribbean Broadcasting Union is precisely to promote this circulation and encourage regional collaboration.

By joining the Caribbean Broadcasting Union, Richès Karayib is affirming its desire to play an active part in this dynamic. This is not just institutional recognition, but a commitment: to contribute to a more connected, visible and structured Caribbean media.

This approach is in line with Richès Karayib’s mission to promote the region’s talents, initiatives and heritage, while encouraging synergies between regions.

Setting course for the CBU Media Awards

As part of this membership, Richès Karayib will take part in the 37th CBU Media Awards organized by the Caribbean Broadcasting Union. Richès Karayib’s participation is in line with the company’s commitment to professionalization and regional outreach.

Beyond the competition, the CBU Media Awards represent a space for Caribbean media to meet, exchange ideas and gain visibility. For RK, it’s a further opportunity to promote a committed editorial voice in the service of the Caribbean.

Andros: 178 blue holes, 162 km² of protected area, an island with a hole through it

In Andros, the water doesn’t just surround the island—it opens it up. With 178 documented blue holes on land, at least 50 at sea, and 162 km² protected by the Blue Holes National Park, this Bahamian island tells its story through its depths as much as through its shores. An island cut through by water On Andros, the landscape may seem simple at first glance. Pine trees, mangroves, quiet roads, scattered villages, and the clear waters of the Bahamas. But beneath this tranquil surface, the island hides something else: a network of blue holes—deep water openings that lead to caves and underground passages. So when visitors arrive near Captain Bill’s Blue Hole, they aren’t just looking at a round pool surrounded by trees. They’re looking at a gateway. Beneath it, the water tells a story older than the beaches—a story of limestone, rain, rising seas, and caves that filled up

Izaline Calister: The Voice of Curaçao Who Sings in Papiamentu

For Izaline Calister, a performance often begins with a language. Even before jazz, before the arrangements, before European recognition, there is this simple yet powerful choice: to sing in Papiamentu, the language of Curaçao. Her voice is a memory, a rhythm, a way of inhabiting the world. Born in Curaçao in 1969, Izaline Calister has forged a unique path between the Dutch-speaking Caribbean and the Netherlands. As a singer, composer, and lyricist, she has established Papiamentu as a musical genre in its own right. Her story also raises a broader question: how can a minority language spread without losing its roots? A Childhood Between Voices and an Island Before the big stages, there’s Curaçao. An island where languages intersect every day. Papiamentu coexists there with Dutch, English, and Spanish. But on the street, within families, and in certain aspects of cultural life, Papiamentu remains a language of intimacy—a language of
