AI & Image Disclosure
In keeping with the UNESCO Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence (2021), we believe in transparency about how AI tools are used in our work. The following disclosure covers all uses of AI in the creation and operation of this website.
AI-Generated Images
Some illustrative and decorative images on this site were created using AI image-generation tools. These images depict fictional scenes and are used solely for visual context, for example to illustrate Caribbean landscapes, community settings, or thematic concepts related to debt and development.
- No AI-generated image on this site is a deepfake or depicts a real, identifiable individual. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or deceased, is entirely coincidental.
- No copyrighted artwork, photographs, or third-party intellectual property was used as source material for these images.
- AI-generated images are not used in place of documentary photography or news imagery. All photographs depicting real events or people are sourced from CPDC’s own archives or properly licensed sources.
Data Integrity
All economic indicators, debt statistics, and country data presented on this site are sourced from official institutions including the IMF, World Bank, and UN agencies.
