Many thanks to David Williams for this information. Although the
Caribbean are part of the America's region at Worlds Council I have made the
Caribbean results a seperate section. This because it is hard to see it
included with the US/Canada as they are a very different circuit and are in fact
a number of countries in a similar way to the IONA circuit.

The first Caribbean
Inter-Collegiate Debating Tournament was organized and held on the St.
Thomas campus of the University of the Virgin Islands (UVI) in April 1989.
It was the brain child of Ms. Junie M. Violenes, Student Activities
Supervisor at UVI St. Thomas. She worked with an organizing team comprising
Prof. Vaneer Godwin, Mr. Ronald Taplin (then Acting Director of Student
Affairs), and student reps. Daley Phillips and Valencia Williams.
Since then, the debates have expanded to include the wider Caribbean,
with other University campuses serving as host - University of the West
Indies (UWI) St. Augustine in Trinidad and Tobago; Caribbean Research Center
of Medgar Evers College (City University of New York); College of the
Bahamas; Inter-American University, Puerto Rico; UVI, St. Croix; and UWI,
Cave Hill in Barbados.
