Grenada is hosting the inaugural Dive and Conservation Festival, which will take place between May 17 to 23. <\/p>\n
This festival will highlight some of Grenadas many conservation efforts over a course of sevendays where attendees will have the opportunity to learn about Grenadas artificial and coral reef projects, participate in bird and turtle watching and lionfish hunting, volunteer for a beach clean-up session and engage with stakeholders during the Conservation Conversations which are open to the public daily.<\/p>\n
Clarice Modeste-Curwen, Minister for Tourism, Civil Aviation, Climate resilience and the Environment stated: Our islands are a divers dream, with diverse marine life, resplendent reefs, impressive wreck sites, and the Worlds first Underwater Sculpture Park. <\/p>\n
However, to maintain this marine paradise, we must recognise the impact of our actions on our environment and do our part to conserve our natural resources. <\/p>\n
She continued, The GTA has recognised that sustainability is at the core of all our activity and indeed we have identified that maintaining our blue spaces and marine life is a pillar of what brand Grenada represents.<\/p>\n
Participants interested in the Dive and Conservation festival can expect to immerse themselves in informative sessions and workshops led by local, regional and international environmental and conservation experts. <\/p>\n
Topics will range from biodiversity and ecosystems to environmental education and research which will aid in building awareness, advocacy and capacity.<\/p>\n
