The vision of GOSESO is to foster a new generation of Africans inspired by environmental stewardship, community stability, and economic sustainability.
In bringing this mission to fruition, GOSESO is generating widespread support to lay the groundwork for improving both human prosperity and wildlife conservation through education for rural Africans that promotes self-reliance, economic and cultural vitality, human health, and peace.
The general goals and objectives for GOSESO are to:
Create and operate a residential school that uses the environment as a framework for an integrated curriculum that teaches community-based conservation and development strategies that promote environmental and community sustainability.
Train students to pursue the fields of ecological management, wildlife conservation, and community development.
Develop honest and forward-looking community leaders who work with dignity and purpose.
Provide local communities with access to resources, information, and services to enhance understanding and foster partnerships among stakeholders.
Contribute to persistent societal change through educational programs that aim to stop the spread of human and wildlife disease.
Empower a diverse group of committed youth to improve cultural-diversity understanding, increase stability and peace, strengthen environmental and community relations, and lead the way to a sustainable future.
Enhance understanding of concepts relating to community and wildlife sustainability, while ensuring that local people benefit from the land and the local resources through participation in environmental decision-making.
