update from Terence on his work with Wildlife Clubs of Seychelles
(An update from Terence Vel, November 2009): I am taking some of my annual leave but have decided to change job after my annual leave I will be doing some work with Wildlife Clubs of Seychelles.
The Wildlife Clubs of Seychelles (WCS) is a non-government organisation (NGO) for young people. It was formed in 1994, dedicated to promoting conservation action through environmental education. Today there are about 800 children throughout Seychelles who belong to Wildlife Clubs and who are members of WCS. Wildlife Clubs of Seychelles is run by volunteers. Most of the clubs are led by teachers and staff, as well as some parents and community volunteers. They meet after school, on weekends and during school holidays. Its mission statement is that ’Wildlife Clubs of Seychelles will be a leading, grassroots, self-sustaining environmental organisation, dedicated to creating an environmentally conscious population in Seychelles.
