BIMAP INITIATIVES

A.  Response to Climate Change

Over the years, BIMAP has taken a serious view of its corporate and social responsible and sought to respond through several initiatives. Once such initiative is the Institute's response to climate change through its Greening BIMAP project

Following below is an excerpt from an article written by Mr. Chevron Nesfield, Quality Assurance and Research Assistant, BIMAP, and originally published in the September 23 2021 edition of the Green Reporter, a newsletter from the Small Grants Programme of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). 

"In recent years, The Barbados Institute of Management and Productivity (BIMAP) has implemented several climate change initiatives such as, the outfitting of LED light fixtures throughout the compound, the installation of water tanks and rain harvesting systems in an effort to assist the country in its fight against climate change.

At the beginning of the year 2020 to formalize our efforts to further enhance our contribution it was decided to have a Greening BIMAP project. This project seeks to build on the initiatives already established and to add components to further assist the country with its goals."   (See link to the newsletter here)
