Basseterre, St. Kitts – Nevis
January 24, 2008
The UNESCO sponsored initiative – Small Islands Voice (SIV), succeeded in turning trash to treasure during the 2008 Grand Carnival Parade.
The clean up troupe saw 20 participants taking up the rear of the parade, lead by a banner displaying a picture of a section of beach strewn with garbage next to a picture of the same beach after it had been cleaned. It also displayed the theme of “From Trash to Treasure” and once again troupe members were joined by Solid Waste Management Corporation (SWMC) workers.
