The TPNW is the first legally binding international agreement to comprehensively prohibit nuclear weapons, with the goal of leading towards their total elimination.

In June 2019 in Georgetown, Guyana, CARICOM Countries participated in a Caribbean Regional Forum on the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons to take stock of the Treaty from a regional perspective, and to canvas progress for the early signature and ratification by all countries in the region.

Dominica, Grenada, and Trinidad and Tobago also signed the PNWT, and Trinidad and Tobago presented its instrument of ratification.

The brief signing ceremony at the UN Headquarters also featured presentations from the President of the UN General Assembly (PGA), the President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the High Representative for Disarmament and the head of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN).
