EcoNorfolk Foundation is a non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting ecologically sustainable development on Norfolk Island.
Founded by environmental activist Denise Quintal, the Foundation aims to assist in advancing the science of sustainability with the wider international community to lead the way for sustainability in the South Pacific.
Its role within the community is to support the preservation of natural resources through education, publicity campaigns, scientific research and development, and merging this with the everyday activities and practices of the Norfolk Island people.
EcoNorfolk Foundation has been involved in projects such as Footprinting and Experimental Prototype Communities, to foster awareness of the global context of local environmental issues. For example, the ‘Sustainable Islands Project’ focuses on the training of skilled professionals from small remote islands, in the area of sustainable environmental and economic development.
EcoNorfolk at the date of writing (March 2023) is in recess.
