Regional solidarity with the Caribbean

Addressing the challenges in responding to complex mixed movements, and seeking to find a balance between ensuring the integrity of borders and addressing the protection needs of asylum-seekers in the region.

2014-2015 Progress

In addition to the various achievements noted in the context of enhancing asylum systems, eight key partner countries and territories - Aruba, the Bahamas, Belize, the Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, the Turks and Caicos Islands, and the United States - took important steps towards establishing a Regional Consultative Process for the Caribbean (RCP). The RCP aims building national and regional capacity to strengthen the management of mixed migration flows in a protection sensitive.

An important example which confirms the spirit of renewed cooperation in the region is the regional refugee resettlement transfer mechanism, which was piloted by Trinidad and Tobago, to promote resettlement as a durable solution.
