Abstract

The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) lags in implementation and periodic reporting of obligations to international human rights bodies. The workshop acted to promote better understanding and wider appreciation, nationally and regionally, of the connection between human rights and sustainable development, and to determine how this agenda can be advanced. This paper reviews workshop activities, presentations, reports and outcomes.
