UNDP funding roadmap to support Natural Resources Ministry

The United Nations Development Programme is funding the development of a five-year strategic roadmap to support Guyana’s Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) in its management of the petroleum and other sectors that it is responsible for.

“The objective is to prepare a strategic plan for the MNR which promotes sustainable development and the integration of environmental and natural resources considerations in economic development planning.  This would include the harmonization of policy and management in the petroleum, forestry, mining and other natural resources-based sectors, and better mainstreaming of protection, conservation and environmental management,” the UNDP’s Request for Proposal states.

A call for firms to submit RFPs was placed by the UNDP in yesterday’s dailies and is currently on its website. (https://procurement-notices.undp.org/ view_notice.cfm?notice_id=76826)
