Dutch Caribbean Nature Alliance Welcomes Special Guests
The Dutch Caribbean Nature Alliance (DCNA), an Bonaire-based organization created in 2003 to protect the natural environment and to promote sustainable management of natural resources on the six Dutch Caribbean islands, will soon welcome a number of special guests, including a representative of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands.
In an unprecedented move, in December 2006, after a visit to Bonaire, the Dutch reigning monarch, Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands, took the decision to become a patron of DCNA, and she reaffirmed her patronage in writing earlier this month.
The visit of DCNA’s special guest is due to the upcoming DCNA board meeting taking place at Captain Don’s Habitat from May 22nd to the 24th.
In addition to the Queen’s representative, attendees will include representatives of Conservation International, De Landschappen, IUCN NL, Samerwerkingsverband Nationale Parken, BirdLife International, and delegates from all the Dutch Caribbean islands. (Source: DCNA Press Release and Images)
