40-In-40 is a social media campaign celebrating Dominica’s 40th independence with 40 days of visual stories about the island’s illustrious past and impressive initiatives. Join us each week as we share interesting images and blurbs about Dominica in our bid to make her trend online. Share our images or post your own using the campaign’s hashtag #40IN40DOMINICA.
Celebrate Dominica; make her trend online!
There are too many positive stories about Dominica and not enough storytellers. Let’s share these with the world and show them why we love this island. Join us as we post stories about Dominica’s places, trade, people, history, cuisine and Citizenship by Investment Programme — all in that order. Post your own stories with the hashtag and together we will celebrate Dominica together.

To solicit buy-in from Dominicans and generate more positive stories being shared via social media, Anichi Development will stage two competitions. The winners or each competition will receive two season passes to the World Creole Music Festival, Oct 26 – 28.
40-In-40 would not be possible without the assistance of key players, who all share a unified vision for the continued development of Dominica – the Nature Island. Special thanks to the Discover Dominica Authority; historian, Dr. Lennox Honychurch; and photographers, Yuri Jones, Derek Galon, Ambo Visuals and Innov8 Multimedia.
