Title: Jamaica Environment Trust Category: Society / Organizations Added on: May 16, 2012

The Jamaica Environment Trust is a non-profit, non-governmental membership organization operating in the island of Jamaica. We were formed in 1991 and our main focus is environmental education and advocacy. We operate Jamaica's largest environmental education program, the Schools Environment Programme, which has been in continuous operation since 1997. We deliver a legal programme, providing legal advice to communities affected by environmental issues, and we conduct campaigns to protect specific natural resources. We also organize field trips, environmental events and an annual beach clean up.
