In addition to themes related to education, the conferences hosted by the CEA-CC have focused on themes related to literature and cultural studies.  These conferences have successful brought together scholars from the Caribbean and other countries outside of the Caribbean; thus, providing a forum for a wider discussion of many of the topics that are of interest to its members.  And in the recent past, the Chapter has successfully entered the world of publishing. The CEA-CC has independently published a sold-out collection of critical essays based on the spring conference of 2005, Transgression and Taboo; and it has also published the proceedings of the fall conference of 2005, Narrating the Past, through Cambridge Scholars.
