Be-It Ltd | Non Executive Director
Vor 2 Tagen
Greenpeace Australia Pacific Limited (GPAP) is seeking up to 3 new directors interested in appointment at its 2022 AGM.
GPAP's Board is dedicated to upholding GPAP's values, mission and purpose.
These are critical as we work to project a compelling vision of an earth capable of nurturing life in all of its magnificent diversity and use our strengths to bring down the vested interests of the fossil fuel order that stand in the way.
About GPAP
Greenpeace is the leading independent environmental campaigning organisation that uses non-violent direct action and creative confrontation to expose global environmental problems and promote solutions that are essential to a green and peaceful future.
Greenpeace's goal is to ensure the ability of the earth to nurture life in all its diversity.
GPAP is the national/regional Greenpeace organisation for the Australia Pacific region.
We operate in Australia, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Cook Islands, Western Samoa, American Samoa, Vanuatu, Kiribati, Tuvalu, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Belau (Palau), Guam, French Polynesia, New Caledonia, Tokelau, Commonwealth of the Marianna.
Our head office is based in Sydney.

GPAP's values are:
Independence: We do not accept money from governments, corporations or political parties because it would compromise our core values.
Bearing witness: Our peaceful protests work to raise awareness and bring public opinion to bear on decision-makers.
Non-violent direct action: We strongly believe that violence in any form is morally wrong and accomplishes nothing.
Greenpeace takes non-violent direct action at the point of an environmental crime to expose an environmental problem.
GPAP is a charity registered with the Australian Charities and Not for Profits Commission (ACNC).
GPAP has an annual turnover of approximately $18.5 million (YE 2020).
