Summary
Barbados’ young disaster heroes stepped up in a high-stakes summer camp where DEM interns led hands-on training for tweens and teens—fire safety, CPR, emergency packing, and radio comms all rolled into one adrenaline-fueled simulation. Teams raced to respond to mock crises, using call signs and teamwork to save “casualties,” proving that real leadership emerges when adults aren’t around. Even the hesitant kids rose to the challenge, showing resilience and collaboration. This immersive exercise, part of the Safe Coast program, isn’t just about climate awareness—it’s about equipping future leaders with lifesaving skills for hurricanes, erosion, and more. For an island nation facing mounting threats, this generation is being prepared to act—not just react—when disaster strikes.
