A new think tank has been established in the Eastern Caribbean, led by internationally-renowned economist Avinash Persaud. It's called the Caribbean Policy Research Institute - or CAPRI - whose newly established Barbados office comes less than three years after a similar office in Jamaica. Independently funded, they say their mission is to inform public debate with good policy options.
