A delegation from the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) reparations commission will hold talks this week with ​officials and politicians in Britain on addressing the historical injustices of slavery and ‌colonialism, as well as their lasting impacts.

At least 12.5 million Africans were kidnapped, forcibly transported ‌by European ships and sold into slavery from the 15th to the 19th centuries. Advocates say action is needed to confront the enduring legacies, such as racism.

Calls for reparations have gained momentum worldwide, particularly among CARICOM, a group of 15 member states that ⁠includes Barbados and Jamaica, ‌and the African Union (AU).

CARICOM has a reparations plan, which includes calls for a full and formal apology, education ‍programmes, debt cancellation and monetary compensation, while the AU is developing its own.

A backlash against reparations has also been growing, and many European leaders have opposed even talking about them, ​with opponents arguing that today's states and institutions should not be held responsible ‌for historical wrongs.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said ahead of the Commonwealth summit in Samoa last year that he preferred to look forward rather than engage in "very long, endless discussions about reparations on the past".
