Green Key South Africa brochure May 2019

THE APPLICATION PROCESS

YOUR PARTNER IN SOUTH AFRICA

The Green Key application is a three-part process:

Green Key South Africa is operated by the Wildlife and Environment Society of South Africa (WESSA), a leading implementer of environmental and conservation initiatives for more than 90 years, and a trusted and effective NGO project partner. WESSA has implemented eco-labels in South Africa for more than 15 years. By joining the Green Key programme you will also be affiliating with WESSA and may use the organisation’s logo to promote this partnership. Visit wessa.org.za to learn more about what we do.

1. Application: In preparation for the first award, an application form must be completed and submitted together with supporting documentation. To earn subsequent awards, the applicant must submit updates to the original application.

2. Audits:

On-site audits are carried out in year 1 (before the first award), in year 2 and every third year thereafter. Off-site audits are carried out in the years between on-site audits.
