OECS-ENVIRONMENT- OECS to launch TV series on Climate Change

CASTRIES, Saint Lucia, CMC-The Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Secretariat will launch a twelve-part television series on climate change on Wednesday as part of the awareness component of a USAID-funded climate change project. The television series, which was recently completed with the assistance of a St Lucian based consultant firm, is a first-time initiative of its kind for the OECS Secretariat, and is expected to contribute to awareness building efforts of an OECS-USAID Climate Change Project aimed at “Reducing the Risks to Human and Natural Assets Resulting from Climate Change (RRACC)”. “The series is expected to generate increased curiosity on climate change and specifically, provide tips on how the public can make individual choices that will help them better cope with climate change related issues,” says OECS Climate Change Communications Specialist Tecla Fontenard.
