KINGSTON, Jamaica — The GraceKennedy Foundation has announced that its 36th Annual Public Lecture, scheduled for Friday, June 5, 2026 in observance of World Environment Day, will focus on the transformative work of the Kingston Harbour Cleanup Project (KHCP).
The lecture, titled Kingston Harbour Cleanup Project: From Vision to Reality, will explore how strategic partnerships, innovative technology, and scientific expertise are helping to drive Jamaica’s first large-scale initiative aimed at reducing the solid waste pollution entering Kingston Harbour, one of the Caribbean’s most important natural and economic assets.
The KHCP, funded by non-profit The Ocean Cleanup, a global leader in river and ocean plastic interception, is spearheaded by the GraceKennedy Foundation in collaboration with Clean Harbours Jamaica. In just five years, the initiative has successfully prevented nearly 13 million pounds of plastic and waste from entering the harbour.
