The Green Heritage Fund Suriname is a trust fund that was set up in Suriname in October 2005 and is a non-profit organisation. The trust fund was established to fund activities that help promote the green image and cultural heritage of Suriname.
Vision
Our vision is to create a society of people who consciously work for continued improvement of their environment, and promote a green, clean and healthy Suriname.
Mission Statement
The GHFS seeks to generate the maximum resources possible to finance activities that will ensure that all Surinamers are equipped to take wise and balanced decisions about the sustainable development of Suriname’s natural resources and biodiversity. These funds will be managed in a manner consistent with the values of volunteerism, love for environmental conservation, pro-action for self-betterment, accountability, transparency, and empowerment.
Foundation Philosophy
The foundation believes a basis needs to be created to fund activities that will provide Surinamers with sufficient information and education, so that Suriname will be able to independently devise and attain a path of sustainable development. These activities would preferably address civil society as a whole to become involved in environmental issues by making these topics as clear, understandable and transparent as possible. The Green Heritage Fund Suriname believes that environmental protection can only be successful if it includes the target groups of environmental protection strategies in the conceptualization and development of these strategies." http://www.greenfund.sr.org/aboutusEN.htm
