Members of the NDC Partnership Steering Committee, which had its Spring 2022 meeting in Montego Bay from April 4 to 7, planted 15 fruit trees at the Hyatt Zilara in Rose Hall on Wednesday April 6.
The trees, apple, soursop, ackee, custard apple, pomegranate and naseberry, which were planted in the hotel’s organic vegetable garden, will feed into the Government of Jamaica’s Three Million Trees Initiative.
Jamaica hosted the meeting in its capacity as a co-chair of the NDC Partnership.
The NDC Partnership is a coalition of over 200 countries, institutions and non-state actors that leverage their resources and expertise to provide countries with the tools they need to implement their plans to combat climate change, in order to build a better future.
The other NDC Partnership co-chair is the United Kingdom.
