What resonated in\u00a0 my opinion with the students was the fact that they can create a change just by playing their part in\u00a0 information sharing and getting involved in groups that support a cause.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the years, the Sandals Foundation has led and supported numerous initiatives geared towards\u00a0 increasing environmental education in schools and communities across the region.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Together with\u00a0 partners &#8211; Environment Awareness Group (EAG) the philanthropic

style=\"font-weight: 400\">The activity provides a one-of-a-kind experience to students in Antigua and Barbuda to\u00a0 explore the wonders of wetlands and terrestrial wildlife.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Similar World Oceans Day activities were held across the islands of The Bahamas, Turks and Caicos\u00a0 Islands, Jamaica,
