Statement of Purpose

Our Green Map project was initiated to make people, especially the youth, more aware of their environment and what they could do to preserve it. Our first project is to map the Grand Saconnex, a town closed to Geneva. The aim is to integrate the people who work in the international organizations and the local residents of the community.

The population of this city has increased a lot in the last few years. Another objective of the map is to highlight all the local initiatives linked to the newly occurring sustainable development.

We worked on this Green Map with officials, scouts, and students of different schools (public and private). The inhabitants and the local associations are also invited to share their information and data. Our partners also included city hall, local firms, one federal government agency.
Our target audience includes the local inhabitants, students, young people, and also tourists.
