A group of students of the Dominica State College (DSC) has embarked on a new initiative to help promote a resilient Dominica by engaging in activities that helps promote healthy habits and cleaner surroundings.
The DSC Culventure Club recently held a beach cleanup at Donkey Beach in Canefield as part of a “go green movement.”
This movement will continue as a bi-monthly event at different locations on the island, engaging in various cleanup activities, among others.
During the month of February, Black History Month is being observed worldwide and in recognition of the observance, the club will be hosting a talk on the topic ‘Know your culture, Know your roots’ on the last Thursday in February. A special speaker will be engaged o help raise awareness of Dominica’s culture and ancestors.
Indeed this is a great initiative that the DSC students are embarking. It should be an example to all the political leaders as we move forward in a world faced with rising environmental concerns. These students are putting their time in by doing the hard work needed right now. Stop talking about what needs to be done and get it done. Great start. DNO I hope that you can continue to keep us all informed on how this project continues around the island. Local companies should sponsor these projects and help DSC make this a successful venture. All the beaches on the island could use this level of attention and more. Great work.
I commend and thank the students of the DSC for this great initiative. As a nature island, we need to figure out how to get people to stop littering and keep the nation clean. Otherwise, we will always be downstream cleaning up after people’s mess.
Thank you, DSC!
