A&B NY Office: Antigua and Barbuda joins in celebrating inaugural International SIDS Day

Antigua and Barbuda was proud to join the community of nations known as Small Island Developing States at the United Nations Headquarters yesterday for a celebration ushering in today’s inaugural International SIDS Day.

With the support of UNESCO, we joined hands in showcasing our rich cultural heritage while bringing renewed focus to our ongoing efforts to advance sustainable economic development, even as we confront the disproportionate impacts of climate change.

We extend sincere thanks to the dedicated members of the Antigua and Barbuda Permanent Mission – Counsellor Glentis Thomas, First Secretary Asha Challenger, Second Secretary Dr. Jerri-anne Jeremy, and Attaché and Executive Assistant Jackley Peters – for their leadership in helping to showcase Antigua and Barbuda at yesterday’s event. We also acknowledge the valued support of the U.S. office of the Antigua and Barbuda Tourism Authority in helping to add our culture and vibrancy to the event.

On this first observance of International SIDS Day, Antigua and Barbuda reaffirms its commitment in standing with @aosis_chair in championing climate resilience, protecting our natural and cultural assets, and advocating for the unique needs of our island nations.
