Welcome to the SVG Green Party WebSite

The St. Vincent & the Grenadines (SVG) Green Party was formerly launched on 10th January 2005. The launch was held at the residence of Ivan O’Neal BSc(Hons), MSc, MBA.

Ivan O’Neal is the Leader of SVG Green Party and one of the co-founders. The launch was of significant interest to all the media in St. Vincent and in attendance were the national TV station, newspapers and radio stations.SVG Green Party’s policies are based on the need for long-term food, economic and social security in our country and environmental sustainability. We aim to encourage the development of an inclusive, safe society for all, eradicate illiteracy and poverty, empower the vulnerable, improve the health of the nation, create a fully employable workforce and reduce unemployment to single figures.

We need to leave behind last century’s politics of short-term party policies, created mainly to get people re-elected, but which are detrimental to our economy and society. We need to leave behind ‘party jobs’, where people are given jobs based on who they voted for.

We need a society in which people gain jobs based on ability and are free to vote for the party of their choice without fear of losing their job. SVG Green Party aims to bring SVG’s economy and society in to the 21st century with policies that are exciting, achievable, realistic, but also necessary to achieve a thriving, sustainable, democratic society.
