Antiguans Launch Crochet Exhibit to Raise Environmental Awarenes

St. John’s, Antigua – More than 40 Antiguans from different sectors of society came together to craft replicas of the coral reef and sea animals to promote environmental protection. Entitled “Crochet for a Cause: Ridge to Reef,” the project’s implementation in Antigua and Barbuda featured two days of workshops at the National Public Library where participants were equipped with the knowledge required to create replicas of coral, turtles, fish, starfish, and seashells.  Funded by Global Environment Facility (GEF) Small Grants Programme (SGP) implemented by the United Nations Development Programme, the project seeks to reduce biodiversity loss and highlight the importance of reducing human induced stresses such as poor water quality and physical damage to the marine environment.
