Caricom pushes for monetary reparations for slavery at Ghana summit

Barbados PM Mia Mottley announced an updated Caricom reparations manifesto at a Ghana conference, urging monetary compensation and other redress from former colonial powers for slavery’s harms, including gender-based violence; the plan ties reparations to climate justice and Indigenous rights, seeks a formal apology and education initiatives, and awaits endorsement by Caribbean governments, while stressing that crimes against humanity are not subject to statute of limitations.

Global Leaders Push for Climate Finance Reform and Green Transition.

Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley is leading a global coalition to demand that the international financial system be fundamentally reformed to provide hundreds of billions of dollars to poorer countries to tackle climate change. She wants to generate more finance for the countries that need it most through a wholesale modernisation of the international monetary system. The current institutions, including the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, were set up by the victorious nations towards the end of the Second World War.
