Teaser
Small business enterprises in the Eastern Caribbean are being given the opportunity to benefit from a community-driven action project on plastic pollution that has been launched under the “Closing the Caribbean Plastic Tap” initiative.

The Sustainable Small Grants Programme (SSGP) will provide targeted financial and technical support to organisations working to reduce plastic waste and advance circular economy solutions in Antigua and Barbuda, Grenada, St. Lucia, St. Kitts and Nevis, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines.

The programme is designed to empower micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), community-based organizations (CBOs), non-governmental organizations (NGOs), cooperatives, associations, schools, and informal groups with demonstrated community engagement to implement practical, scalable interventions that reduce plastic leakage into the environment.
