CONTEXT INFORMATION FOUNDATION TEEIFUKA

Mission - Teeifuka wants to improve the living circumstances of the occupants of upper Surinam.

Vision - Teeifuka wants to be an equal and reliable partner for the inhabitants of upper Surinam. They do this by translating their needs and wishes into durable, recognizable and futuristic development projects. These projects can be used effectively for the improvement of the living circumstances of the occupants of upper Surinam.

Projects and activities executed or in execution

All projects and activities are implemented in Surinam at the place where the Saamaka tribe lives to the upper reaches of the Surinam river. This area is in the Amazon Forest. The Maroons exists in the villages between Duwata up to the Sinthea waterfall and they live in an area with more than 35,000 people, divided into 60 full rural communities with an average of 500 to 1000 people. In the Netherlands Teeifuka cooperates with several primary schools, with financing organizations and companies, other individual persons and we participate in the coordinating Maroon organization in the Netherlands, SaMON (www.samon.info). Teeifuka further works with individuals in an exchange program Holland-Suriname. The people from Holland visit the work area by means of our foundation and at the same time they do something for the people there through our projects and activities in the context of our project “eco-tourism for development work”.

Because of all the activities taken place in Surinam, they have been coordinated in such way that a logical line has arisen from the project ideas in upper Surinam, translating the project ideas to a project proposal and the project subsidy route in the Netherlands to the implementation and exploitation of the plans in Surinam.  In the Netherlands we are working on the project description after agreement is reached with the local population in Suriname concerning the projects that we perform.

Teeifuka recruits funds in the Netherlands and the funds are transferred to Suriname. After that, Teeifuka Holland and Teeifuka Surinam consider the action plan and at that moment Teeifuka Surinam can start with the implementation. Teeifuka Suriname rappelled the implementation step by step. With the reporting of Teeifuka Suriname, Teeifuka Holland can make a final report with the financial statement for the donors in the Netherlands.

Teeifuka Holland is part of the Maroon Cooperating Organizations in the Netherlands, SaMON and in 2008 and 2009, Teeifuka helped organize the Maroons Participation and Integration Day and the Memorial and celebration Day of the Maroons of Surinam.

Implementing regular development projects in the upper Suriname area since 2003.
