About JEBO

Since the onset of their establishment, JBEO has been instrumental in conducting extensive research regarding mining companies both local and internationally. They have compiled vast information on the overall operation of these companies specifically in the island of Jamaica and the effects of their activities on humans and the environment at large.

JBEO is comprised of a team of volunteers from diverse cultures and background who have extended their time and efforts to achieve one common mission.
