Introduction
BEN is
established to promote equality of
opportunity with respect to ethnic
communities in the preservation
protection and development of the
environment
BEN proposes there is no
such thing as a pure environmental
project - a so called pure environmental
projects is one which has rejected its
social and cultural context. BEN
therefore works to integrate social,
cultural and environmental concerns in
the context of sustainable development.
In order to achieve this, we work across
diverse sectors. Our current themes
integrate the areas of natural
environment, the built environment,
heritage, social justice, health and
housing.
