Barbados has unveiled the first Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) branded Electronic Bus today (January 21). This electronic bus has been launched in active collaboration with the United Nations (UN) Barbados and the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS).
The Development symbolises the United Nations' commitment to building a better future and leaving no one behind.
Notably, the United Nations Barbados is an intergovernmental organisation that works in active collaboration with the UN Barbados and other Eastern Caribbean states. Collaboratively, these organisations work to support and implement sustainable development goals across the Caribbean nations.
As per the Organisation, this Sustainable Development Goals branded electric bus will facilitate, raise awareness and inspire people to #ActNow for the world they want.
Reportedly, This #ActNow global campaign is a UN-led movement to inspire action towards achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). From cleaner air to equal opportunities, the SDGs are the roadmap to a just and equitable future for everyone.
Further, while highlighting the above vision behind this Development, the UN Barbados also shared some key reasons, encouraging people to take this hop on board.
Here are reasons people need to hop on board with SDGs Electronic buses:
- Progress on these Global Goals is too slow worldwide. But every Caribbean person and global citizen can change the story.
- Imagine hundreds of these buses across the region, such as farmers sharing rainwater techniques and students building school gardens and homes powered by sunshine. Together, this effective initiative can create a tidal of change.
