PARTNERSHIPS FOR CLIMATE ACTION, MITIGATION & ADAPTATION TO ACHIEVE SDGS 13, 15 & 17

OCTOBER 3RD TO OCTOBER 9TH

Since February 2020, the Caribbean Philanthropic Alliance (CariPhilAlliance) and its network of partners have mobilized youth, community-based and non-governmental organizations across 22 Caribbean countries and territories to plant more than

1.4 million trees, through the Caribbean Tree Planting Project (CTPP).

These ongoing activities have inspired the Caribbean Tree Planting Week (CTPW), to be celebrated virtually from October 3 to 9, 2022. The week’s events aims to build public awareness of the importance of planting trees – a critical part of the region’s environmental and cultural heritage. At the same time, the week will reflect on how to achieve several of the global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations in 2015, especially the worst performing SDGs in the Caribbean. According to the 2020 SDG Report, these include SDG #2 (Zero Hunger); #6 (Clean Water & Sanitation); #8 (Decent Work & Economic Growth); #9 (Industry, Innovation & Infrastructure); #10 (Reducing Inequalities); #11 (Sustainable Cities & Communities); #14 (Life Below Water); #15 (Life on Land); #16 (Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions), among others.
