social well-being.
Goal:
Greening the 9 (10) cities of Guyana through a holistic circular economy approach:
Goal 1: Increasing share of Renewables and Energy Efficiency,
Goal 2: Accelerate sustainable waste management, recycling and re-use and composting,
Goal 3: Land-use Planning (Industrial and Agriculture Zones and Tourism Belt).
Slide3National development strategies & Policies
NAMA objectives and goals fully embedded in national development strategies and policies:
Constitution,
International Obligations (NDC, SDGs),
CRSAP,
National Agriculture Strategy,
Energy Policy,
Environmental Protection Act and Regulations,
Low Carbon Development Strategy.
