About Us
We are Sustainability for Seychelles (S4S) - a non-governmental organisation (NGO)
Registered in December 2007, passionately working to promote sustainable, “green” living in Seychelles. We carry out our work in close collaboration with everyone, be it citizens, Government Ministries and Agencies, other NGOs and the private sector.
S4S was formed by a group of dedicated people who were committed to the promotion of sustainable living, and who believe that citizens have a vital role to play in helping Seychelles shift towards this ideal. S4S is led by an Executive Committee – all volunteers – and the committee is charged with the responsibility of guiding our strategic development and helping the organisation evolve as an innovative and effective non-profit organisation.
