Despite Barbados’ strong focus on climate resilience, a new study has found that the island’s youth lag behind their regional counterparts in awareness of green and circular economy activities.
The findings emerged from a UNICEF-commissioned Climate Change and Resilience study examining youth engagement in Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica and St Lucia.
Released on World Environment Day during the presentation of findings under the topic, ‘Young People’s Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices on Climate Change and Green and Circular Economies in the Eastern Caribbean’, the research is intended to help shape climate programmes that better include young people.
