WWF Guianas is our first major grantor that recognized
the potential of the entire Peperpot area in terms of a
pilot project for "green urbanization" where development
is stimulated in balance with nature.
grantor / donor
Recently a new collaborative partner has been found in
Stg. Tresor
from Utrecht University, which owns and manages a
comparable (but much larger) protected nature reserve in
French Guiana.
partner
Another important collaborative partner which was also
founded by the Surinaamse Cultuurmaatschappij N.V.
(Mariënburg) is the
Stg. Peperpot Nature Forest ("Stg. Peperpot Natuurbos").
This foundation was expressly created to ensure the
sustainable conservation & management of the 700 ha
protected nature forest area, "Peperpot Nature
Corridor".
