“Land is abused because it is regarded as a commodity.
When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”Aldo Leopold1
It is Les Sentiers de Gore's goal that it provides forward-looking tools to foster a strong commitment by our administrators, leaders and fellow citizens to understand the principles of our natural systems that support our lives within it. To sustain our flora and fauna by maintaining Greenway Corridors that is inter-connective throughout the entire Canton de Gore and beyond. That all class of citizens have immediate access to our forests and embodies the values to co-exist with it.
With Gore being largely undeveloped and mostly private. Les Sentiers de Gore, our newly formed organization, is just one of those tools to receive donations and funding for purpose to protect our natural ecosystems, promote nature activities, our history, encourage creativity and healthy outdoor living as well as support similar organizations for such purpose.
With pioneering spirit, Les Sentiers de Gore encourages embodying a land ethic to develop carefully, not recklessly to ensure we remain an affordable, peaceful community within the natural habitat landscape and remain here with a great sense of belonging for the sake of our long-term livelihood.
“To those devoid of imagination a blank place on the map is a useless waste; to others, the most valuable part.”
