The four
Primary Goals of
The Tobago Project

 

CREATE AWARENESS AROUND DEVELOPING SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES

To build on the existing public and government support in Tobago for moving towards a “Green Economy” by increasing the level of awareness of the challenges and benefits of low-carbon technologies and of the concept of “Sustainable Communities”.

DEMONSTRATE THE CHALENGES & BENEFITS OF DEVELOPING SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES

To provide a practical demonstration at a regional level to the general public of the technical challenges and financial cost-benefits of using sustainable management systems, renewable energy and other green technologies.

DEVELOP A STRATEGY TO BECOME CARBON NEUTRAL

To develop a long-term Strategic Plan (“roadmap”) for how North-East Tobago (“NE Tobago”) could be developed into a Carbon Neutral or Low Carbon Destination and a globally-recognized model of “Sustainable Communities” where it’s world famous marine and terrestrial biodiversity is protected and managed for the benefit present and future generations.

SOURCE FUNDING & PROVIDE RESOURCES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN

To identify and assist in sourcing funding for community led projects, and provide the resources to support the implementation of the Strategic Plan.
