  • (Council of Churches in Cuba)
  • (Conférence des Eglises de la Caraïbe)
    "In 1971 Caribbean Church leaders came together to address the problems of poverty, underdevelopment, unemployment and the causes of social unrest in the region. The result was the birth of the Caribbean Conference of Churches (CCC) two years later in 1973. The mandate given to the organisation was "the promotion of ecumenism and social change in obedience to Jesus Christ and in solidarity with the poor." The CCC is the regional ecumenical body of the Caribbean. It is an independent, non-profit, non-governmental organisation and is one of the vanguard development agencies in the region. It is an affiliate of the World Council of Churches (WCC) and is associated with numerous regional and international organisations including the Ecumenical Coalition on Third World Tourism (ECTWT), the Caribbean Policy Development Centre (CPDC) and the West Indian Commission. The CCC has a membership of thirty-four (35) different Christian denominations and works in thirty-two (32) English, French, Dutch and Spanish speaking countries in the Pan-Caribbean region."

    «En 1971, les dirigeants des églises de la Caraïbe se sont réunis dans le but de traiter des problèmes de la pauvreté, du sous-développement, du chômage ainsi que les causes des troubles sociaux dans la région.  Ces débats ont eu pour résultat l'émergence de la Conférence des Eglises de la Caraïbe (CCC, sigle en anglais) deux ans plus tard en 1973. Le mandat remis à l'organisation consistait à « promouvoir l'oecuménisme et des changements sociaux en accord avec les principes de Jésus-Christ et en toute solidarité avec les plus démunis. »  La CCC est un organisme oecuménique régionale de la Caraïbe.  C'est une organisation non-gouvernementale indépendante à caractère bénévole, et elle constitue l'une des principales agences de développement de la région.  Elle est un membre associé du Conseil oecuménique des Eglises (COE) et travaille en relation étroite avec diverses organisations régionales et internationales, y compris la Ecumenical Coalition on Third World Tourism  (Coalition oecuménique pour le tourisme dans le tiers-monde) (ECTWT), le Caribbean Policy Development Centre (Centre pour le développement des politiques de la Caraïbe) (CPDC) et la West Indian Commission (la Commission des Antilles). La CCC comprend trente-cinq (35) différentes dénominations chrétiennes et travaille dans trente-deux (32) pays anglophones, francophones, hispanophones et de langue hollandaise dans la région pan-caribéenne.»
