Hello everyone, I am Jovita Tamosaityte, based in my home country, Lithuania, which is all snowy at the moment. I am lucky to have a chance to work in many aspects of the sustainability field for more than a decade with the focus on different regions and countries. I have been coordinating knowledge for ISLANDS since the beginning of the project and am pleased to see the collaboration and valuable experience sharing between SIDS. Thank you everyone for joining the webinar and looking forward to future collaborations!

I am sharing the link to the research on Mercury and Arsenic levels in skin lightening products in the Caribbean region. The co-author of the study, Dr. Terry, was among our speakers in the webinar and shared very interesting insights about skin bleaching creams commonly used in Trinidad and Tobago.
