The coordinator
The National Park of Guadeloupe
Created in 1989, the National Park of Guadeloupe is a public administrative establishment under the authority of the Ministry of the Environment. Its territory was extended to the marine environment and the surrounding communities in 2009. It ensures the protection of an exceptional natural heritage, the reception of the public and environmental outreach activities. Through a territorial charter and in consultation with the communities and local stakeholders, it also has the objective of promoting the uses and methods of sustainable development.
The National Park of Guadeloupe pilots the project and partially finances it, but many stakeholders will also contribute to its implementation over the course of the next few years.
