The Goa Foundation is the most well known of Goa’s environmental action groups. Founded in 1986 by a group of Goan environmentalists each flighting his or her own individual environmental battles, the organisation today commands the respect of judiciary, government and the general public for persisting with its environment agenda for more than two decades.
The Goa’s Foundation’s legal work on mining, stretching 20 years (from 1992), has now culminated in a comprehensive writ petition filed by it directly in the Supreme Court of India. This page documents some of the Foundation’s legal and other work on mining in Goa.
The Goa Foundation website is being consolidated, reorganised, and redesigned, section by section. Keep up to with work of the foundation and stay updated on the new sections by following the facebook page.
