Celidon Foundation

EARTH-FOCUSED SCHOOLS

GOAL: To support the development of earth-focused primary and secondary schools throughout the world that aim to grow an eco-literate citizenry, that equip students with the skills, knowledge and understanding necessary to make well informed environmental decisions, and that instill in learners the civic responsibility necessary to become kind and caring stewards of the Earth.

UNIVERSITY FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

GOAL: To support the development of a new environmentally focused and integrated university which is in tune with UNESCO's* vision that a sustainable future "will require an education that not only continues throughout life, but is also as broad as life itself, an education that serves all people, draws upon all domains of knowledge and seeks to integrate learning into all of life's activities."

ECOLOGICAL PRESERVES

GOAL: To acquire and place in perpetual trust at-risk ecosystems. The Foundation will then utilize these as managed and environmentally focused laboratories for the benefit of students, teachers, researchers, visitors, and surrounding communities while at the same time protecting their natural habitat.

CONSERVATION CENTERS

GOAL: To enable communities located near sensitive environmental 'hot spots' to establish conservation exhibit and education centers for the benefit of their own citizens, as well as visitors from around the world.

MARINE AND BIOLOGICAL RESEARCH

GOAL: To establish marine research and biological laboratories in remote locations around the world. These will be available to students, researchers, and their associates for short-term research.


GREEN COMMUNITIES

GOAL: To instill a green consciousness within communities throughout the world. The Foundation will support ecologically sound programs that promote conservation, pollution prevention, and healthy, sustainable families.

SCHOLARSHIPS

GOAL: To enable children and adults throughout the world to engage in formal and community-based learning activities which promote a better understanding of our Earth and its natural resources.
