The Department of Environment held an awards ceremony of the winners of the 2022 Climate Change Awareness Campaign and Survey, with seven preschools being awarded technologies that would help them to become more resilient to climate change events such as drought.
The campaign was focused raising awareness on the Technology Needs Assessment (TNA) Project, as well as other climate change related documents such as the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and the National Gender Assessment Survey 2021.
As part of the campaign, a survey was launched on climate change, with respondents choosing a preschool to be awarded a climate-smart technology.
The Deanery Lane Daycare and Preschool received the most votes, winning a water tank, including installation and set-up.
The full list of schools who were awarded technologies are as follows:
- Beacon Light Nazarene Academy Preschool – Water Tank
- Greenbay Preschool – Atmospheric Water Generator
- Simon Bolivar Preschool – Solar AC Unit
- Sir Luther Wynter Preschool – LED Lights
- John’s Catholic Early Childhood Centre – Atmospheric Water Generator
