CARIBBEAN-ENVIRONMENT-Regional workshop on biosafety opens in Dominica

Apr 15, 2014

ROSEAU, Dominica, CMC – A three-day regional workshop on the environmental risk assessment in biosafety began here Monday as the region prepares to participate in two important international environmental conferences later this year.


The workshop forms part of a regional project for implementing national biosafety frameworks in the Caribbean and according to the director of the Environmental Coordinating Unit here, Lloyd Pascal, “this business of biosafety is critical, is important to us”.


“We’ve made the effort to prepare ourselves because the health and wellbeing of our people as well as the safety of our environment is too important for us to neglect. It is for this reason that this important regional workshop is being held,” Pascal added.
