			In 2001, the heads of government signed a Revised Treaty of Chaguaramas thus clearing the way for the transformation of the idea for a Common Market aspect of CARICOM into instead a Caribbean (CARICOM) Single Market and Economy. Part of the revised treaty among member states includes the establishment and implementation of the Caribbean Court of Justice.

The ''Caribbean Community'' ('''CARICOM'''), is an organisation of 15 [[Caribbean]] nations and dependencies.

Its main purposes are to
* promote economic integration and cooperation among its members
* to ensure that the benefits of integration are equitably shared
* to coordinate foreign policy.

Its major activities involve coordinating economic policies and development planning; devising and instituting special projects for the less-developed countries within its jurisdiction; operating as a regional single market for many of its members (Caricom Single Market); and handling regional trade disputes.

The secretariat headquarters is based in Georgetown, [[Guyana]].
