FST celebrates World Oceans Day 2020. Oceans are an inescapable part of the lives of Caribbean nations. FST celebrates all, including our own Centre for Marine Sciences (CMS), who work tirelessly to raise awareness about the benefits humankind derives from the ocean and about our individual and collective duty to use its resources sustainably.
