The introduction of live-streamed Tobago House of Assembly sessions was welcomed by many in the diaspora who often feel disconnected from decision-making back home. While access has improved, some viewers question whether the broadcasts provide enough context, follow-up, and accountability.

What role can digital archives, storytelling projects, and diaspora-led initiatives play in preserving a strong and accurate sense of Tobagonian identity?
