President Bharrat Jagdeo yesterday gave a lecture at the University of Guyana on the country’s Low Carbon Development Strategy where he stated that it is important that the institution get involved in formulating national policies.
The strategy is aimed towards promoting economic development, while at the same time combating climate change.
Following his lecture, the Head of State entertained questions from students about the strategy whilst calling for a platform on which developing countries like Guyana are not seen as mere recipients of aid, but as equal partners in the search for climate solutions.
The first set of public consultations on the strategy will begin on Friday in Region 9.
During July 6-15, the consultations will be taken to Regions Six, Seven, Eight and Ten.
