Our Strategic Plan
The Council of The Bahamas National Trust articulates a five-year Strategic Plan for the organization. The plan defines the mission, five-year focus and broad stroked thematic objectives. For the benefit of staff, standing committees, donors and volunteers the Strategic Plan lays out organizational priorities for the five-year period. Each year annual work plans are developed based on the Strategic Plan.
From the Bahamas National Trust Strategic Plan 2003-2008
Mission
To conserve the natural and historical resources of The Bahamas
Five-Year Focus
The Bahamas National Trust will continue to develop an integrated National Park and Protected Area System and foster initiatives to achieve conservation and sustainable use of the natural and historical resources of The Bahamas.
Background
A fundamental component of the 2003-2008 Strategic Plan is the recognition that programmatic goals are dependent on institutional soundness.
Developing and successfully implementing strategies to build financial resources and our membership base, for example, are as equally important as work in national parks or the classroom.
And further, communicating our plans and our accomplishments, through public outreach as well as direct participatory opportunities, enhances understanding and builds support - not only for the programs themselves, but also for the Bahamas National Trust. Communication is important to our work today but essential for our plans for tomorrow.
