STUDENTS EMBRACE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION THROUGH ART EXHIBITION

Basseterre, St. Kitts, November 22, 2018 (SKNIS): The Department of Youth Empowerment is partnering with a number of stakeholders to expose the creative talents of art students, while at the same time encouraging them to preserve the natural resources of St. Kitts and Nevis, by hosting an exhibit under the theme: ‘Preserving our Land of Beauty.’

Pierre Liburd, Acting Director of Youth Empowerment, commented on the theme, noting that one of the priority goals of the St. Kitts and Nevis Federal Youth Policy, 2017-2022, speaks to preserving the environment.

“The theme centres around environmental awareness, conservation and preservation, and that’s one of the main pillars” of the Policy – getting young people involved in sustainable development of St. Kitts and Nevis’ natural resources. So it engages them in taking stock of what we have and considering how they would present a message to encourage others to recognize and to preserve it,” he said.

BIGGER AND BIGGER CRUISE SHIPS VISIT ST. KITTS-NEVIS

In 2017, a total of five cruise ships visited the Federation in a single day, bringing with them over 16,000 cruise ship passengers.

Basseterre, St. Kitts, November 20, 2018 (SKNIS): As the local cruise tourism sector expands, the Federation is attracting more than one million passengers per season – a distinction which has resulted in its marquee status designation by the Florida-Caribbean Cruise Association (FCCA).

“We are having bigger ships. And so, on December 11, we are going to welcome Symphony of the Seas [for its inaugural visit], which is the world’s largest cruise ship that will bring a passenger count somewhere in the region of 7,600; 10,000 tops, including the crew,” said Minister of Tourism, the Honourable Lindsay Grant at the recent Prime Minister’s press conference.
