UKOTCF gives evidence to Parliament

UKOTCF evidence to the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee Inquiry into the Future of the UK Overseas Territories. Full story

Wonderful Water: a course for schools. These environmental education materials were developed by UKOTCF, the Turks & Caicos Islands (TCI) Department of Education, and TCI teachers. They benefited from the donation of large amounts of UKOTCF volunteer time, and of all the photographs – which, unlike most available curriculum material, were primarily pictures within TCI. The first 2 sets of materials, Wetland Ecosystems and Mangroves, have recently been revised, and are free here.
