Anne Sylvia Kacal (née Greenwood; April 1939 – 24 October 2003) was a British-Trinidadian conservationist, teacher, and art patron.
She ran an art gallery in the Hilton Shopping Arcade and gained a reputation for supporting new artists;[1] together with William Gordon, Kacal organised Shastri Maharaj's first solo exhibition in 1982.
She wrote a weekly "Environment" column for the Trinidad and Tobago Guardian to increase public awareness of environmental issues.
[2] In 1995, Kacal retired from teaching[1] and began a Master's degree in environmental resource management at the University of the West Indies at Cave Hill in Barbados.
After graduating, Kacal returned to Trinidad to work full-time on environmental projects, and co-drafted the Wildlife Conservation Bill.
These assignments helped Kacal bid for consulting contracts with ecotourism and conservation projects first in Tanzania, then (after 1999) in Malawi.
[1] The T&T Field Naturalists' Club and the CFCA commissioned a memorial plaque for her; it is installed in the Garden of Peace at the Holy Trinity Cathedral, Port of Spain.
