‘Legendary Caribbean Legal Practitioners’, a documentary video showcasing 48 exceptional Caribbean lawyers was debuted on Wednesday, by the CCJ Academy for Law, which is the educational arm of the Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ).
This video marks the third installment of the Academy’s Eminent Caribbean Jurist series, and was launched in tandem with the first “Legal Conference on Criminal Justice Reform – Advancing the Needham’s Point Declaration” held 10- 11 July 2024 in Guyana Marriott Hotel Georgetown.
The 48 honourees hail from Anguilla (1), Antigua and Barbuda (1), The Bahamas (1), Barbados (6), Belize (4), British Virgin Islands (1), Grenada (1), Guyana (8), Haiti (1), Jamaica (10), Saint Kitts and Nevis (1), Saint Lucia (1), Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (1), Suriname (3), and Trinidad and Tobago (8).
The video documentary, which also features the jurists’ respective home countries, is available on YouTube via the link: Legendary Caribbean Legal Practitioners.
A statement released by the organization expressed the motivation behind producing the video:
“As with the Academy’s previous publications, it is hoped that highlighting the lives and work of these Caribbean legal personalities will inspire the younger generation of practitioners.”
