Caribbean Studies Forum

The objective of the Caribbean Studies Forum is to connect a diverse body of academics to promote the field of Caribbean Studies. The organization is a scholarly group that represents members of the academy and the international community that seeks to develop a clear knowledge and understanding of Caribbean Studies, an interdisciplinary discipline.
