The CARICOM Reparations Commission (CRC), Government of Barbados and the CARICOM Secretariat will host the Third CARICOM Regional Conference on Reparations under the theme “Reparatory Justice as the Coming Enlightenment” from 17-19 September 2026. The three-day activity will take place at the Wyndham Grand Sam Lord’s Castle, Saint Philip, Barbados.
This major CARICOM forum on reparations follows the adoption of the landmark United Nations Resolution A/RES/80/250 on 25 March 2026, which declared the trafficking and racialised chattel enslavement of Africans as “the gravest crime against humanity.”
