Ghana is hosting the Next Steps Conference on Reparatory Justice in Accra, drawing presidents, prime ministers and parliamentary leaders from more than 80 countries. The gathering aims to move the reparations conversation from principle toward concrete mechanisms, a theme that links the African continent and the Caribbean diaspora directly. CARICOM’s long-running reparations push gives the meeting added weight for Caribbean audiences.

What this means for you: this is the diaspora’s marquee policy conversation of the season; its outcomes will shape how reparations claims are organised on both sides of the Atlantic.
