Cochrane Caribbean is an affiliate centre of  Cochrane and serves a reference centre for English speaking Caribbean territories. We are physically located at the University of the West Indies, Mona, Jamaica with close ties to the Cavehill campus in Barbados.

  1. Identifying and providing a forum for the region’s resources in systematic review
  2. Providing regional training and support for English speaking review authors and other contributors to the Cochrane Collaboration
  3. Promoting the use of Cochrane Reviews throughout the region
  4. Establishing key alliances with existing regional organizations
  5. Disseminating information about the Cochrane Collaboration throughout the region
