Life is lived in turns generation after generation and season after season. The passage in line comes with the transfer of value of all sorts and types forming the history of a people.
History, regarded as the whole series of past events connected with a particular person or thing leaves the footprints of a people that helps people keep track thereby connecting the past present and future
Reflections on the footprints helps inform key events, periodicals, situations and circumstances and how society has been able to interact with one another and how they utilised their resources both natural
man-made including the environment through norms, beliefs and cultural practices. As societies grow and beam into the future special emphasis and attention has been on the focus on research to identify, map out, document, preserve and develop those values to the extent possible not only for transfer but to form part of the economic development of societies and nations.
Preservation and promotion of culture and heritage has since been a key area of study the world over. The neglect and failure to tap this sector and link it into the development agenda is not just a mere omission but a fatal mistake.
The Green Village Empowerment Foundation (GVEF) recognises the gap on pursuing these footprints and as an organisation seeks to be part of the effort towards this noble goal and agenda through the establishment of the The Heritage Magazine among others as a project.
