About GFDD’s Publications:
Over the last year, GFDD has made an exerted effort to increase sales of our publications. In 2011, GFDD published a revised edition of New Perspectives: Dominican Republic. The 275 page masterful work aptly captures the geography, environment, culture, history, commerce and people of the Dominican Republic. In response to anticipated sales volume, GFDD has printed 4,000 editions of the
bilingual English-Spanish book. The 2011 version has been registered under the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) system, making it accessible to wider audiences. The photography book, inspired by Editor-in Chief, Natasha Despotovic, features over 400 aerial images by Franco-Dominican photographer Anne Casalé. Promotion of the book and travelling photography exhibit have become an integral part of the joint mission of GFDD and FUNGLODE to promote understanding and appreciation of
Dominican culture and heritage by presenting lesser known facets of the country’s diverse landscapes and micro-climates. The photo exhibit has toured many locations in the Dominican Republic, the United States, Latin America and Europe.

The Dominican Encyclopedic Dictionary of the Environment masterfully unites information on the environment and natural resources of the Dominican Republic. The one-of-a-kind publication is sure to serve as a
an important reference for generations of high school and university students and environmentalists. The dictionary represents the most complete source of information on the environment and national resources of the Dominican Republic, including an incredible 712 defined environmental terms, 58 table sets, 123 graphics, 19 scientific articles and over 900 photos.
