According to a joint press release from MNR and CI-Guyana, the MoU is based on a shared desire to collaborate to build a sustainable green economy, where there is strong responsible involvement, ownership, action, and benefit sharing by the people of Guyana.

The signing culminated with a briefing session by CI-Guyana with the Minister of Natural Resources, Raphael Trotman, and his team to give an update on CI’s work and progress in Guyana.
