THE NVB BUREAU

In order to implement our policy, the office is structured as follows:

One Director
Three Dep.Directors
Project Coordinators
Every Dept. operates with a small professional and supportive staff and hires part-time staff or consultants.
Financial Department
Staffs meetings are held on a regular basis in order to inform all staff members on activities planned and implemented and in order to discuss policy issues. All Depts. organize internal meetings.

Until 1998 the NVB worked in the districts of Paramaribo, Wanica, Commewijne and Para. In 1998 it was decided to extend the geographical area to the Upper-Suriname River area in the district of Sipaliwini when the implementation of the WEEP project started.
