About
The mission of the Terra Nossa Foundation – and of Project Terra Inc – is to facilitate connections between indigenous communities and globally minded sustainable enterprise and nature preservation. Through such connections, indigenous groups can maintain their traditional culture, environments, and way of life in a self-determined and meaningful way, while confidently becoming part of the global community in the 21st Century.
The Terra Nossa Foundation aims to achieve this through cooperatively and collaboratively working with indigenous groups in order to:
Organise community based sustainable development programs.
Organise local, national, and international environmental awareness campaigns.
Connect local communities and their sustainably harvested/manufactured products with mainstream international commerce.
