Experience
Promote and facilitate activities that build a real understanding of the environment.
Our mission
Motivating action through greater environmental awareness and education in Guyana.
The EMC Foundation was established in 2022 by Mr. Shyam Nokta to support environmental awareness and education in Guyana, with a focus on youth.
The drive for the initiative came from watching environmental issues evolve over three decades, and from how central those issues have become to Guyana's national and global story.
We motivate action through greater environmental awareness and education — starting with the students who will live with the results.

Ollie saysWant the short version? We take students outside, help them notice things, and then help them do something about it.
