The Iyanola Project is seeking to sustainably and effectively manage the natural resources of the northeast coast of Saint Lucia. It is the only remaining frontier with a combination of rare and endemic flora and fauna, landscapes of outstanding natural beauty and quality, ecosystems rich in bio-diversity and pristine beaches.
This region is endowed with a variety of environmental resources which form an important socio-economic and cultural asset base of the island’s national economy. The prudent and judicious harnessing of those resources through sustainable land use planning and management can produce local economic benefits and contribute to positive environmental change and adaptation at the global scale.
The Minister for the Department of Sustainable Development encourages residents in the various communities to participate in these very important Iyanola Project consultations, which have the potential to transform the northeast coast
