  CYEN-T&T Elements of Awareness: Biodiversity
Friday 22nd May 2015, 9am - 12noon, St. François Girls' College, Belemot, Trinidad and Tobago

The Caribbean Youth Environment Network Trinidad and Tobago Chapter will be conducting a presentation to students of the St. François Girls' College in Trinidad and Tobago in recognition of World Biodiversity Day. This presentation will seek to educate the young audience about the importance of biodiversity to our survival and encourage them to preserve and conserve biodiversity. We at CYEN believe that our young people need to be made aware of the conventions that Trinidad and Tobago is signed on to and the actions that need to be done to achieve sustainable development in our country. They are the future leaders.
