Overview
The Grenadines, and particularly Union Island, because of its distance from the mainland, need tourism to ensure their economic survival. At the same time, tourism depends heavily on the environment. Young persons interested in our survival began to recognise the need to safeguard the natural habitat of the island, and founded a club. After several meetings we came up with the name Union Island Environmental Attackers as we wished to attack the problem of litter on our island and from this our group was established on the 8th November 1999 at Clifton, Union Island. In 2021 we changed our name to the Union Island Environmental Alliance, which we feel better reflects our collaborative and inclusive philosophy to community development and environmental conservation. As we strive to share our beautiful island with visitors we are developing ecotourism experiences that can help us become financially sustainable. We hope you will choose to join us on one of our tours and make the most of your time on Union Island.
