At the close of its 34th regular meeting on 6 July 2013, CARICOM heads of government agreed to establish national reparations committees in member states and a regional CARICOM Reparations Commission. Haiti was among the states identified for political oversight of the work. The initiative framed reparations as a regional response to slavery and colonialism, while leaving each society to shape its own evidence, priorities, and demands.
