AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 minutes ago

Climate Risk for Children: UNICEF launched a child-centred, multi-hazard spatial climate risk assessment for the Eastern Caribbean, warning that Grenada and neighbours face overlapping threats—research cited says more than nine in 10 children could be exposed to at least three major climate hazards by mid-century. Climate Planning Gaps: A UNICEF study found regional climate plans lack child-specific indicators and measurable targets, making it hard to track whether climate spending is actually helping children. Grenada Waste Management Boost: Grenada commissioned a commercial glass pulveriser (EC$486,000) funded via the Tourism Enhancement Fund to strengthen glass recovery and cut recyclable waste entering the stream. Blue Economy Funding: Action Bequia Inc. was selected for Caribbean Biodiversity Fund BluEFin seed funding (up to US$250,000), backing solutions to reduce plastic and marine pollution and support biodiversity and climate resilience. Marine Conservation Week: Grenada will host its 5th Dive and Conservation Festival (Oct 26–Nov 1) with reef and wreck exploration plus hands-on education under a “Sustainable Legacy” theme. Fisheries Resilience Project: A US$12.55m GEF-funded CC4FISH-II initiative is set to build climate and disaster resilience in Caribbean fisheries through 2030, benefiting fisherfolk and coastal communities across the region. Coastal Cleanup Mobilisation: Sandals Foundation coordinated International Coastal Cleanup Day in Grenada with 70 volunteers tackling litter along the airport top road to Devil’s Bay. Youth Voice in Climate Decisions: A Grenada-linked youth advocate called for meaningful youth participation from the start of climate decision-making, not token involvement.
