President, Dr Irfaan Ali and the new Director-General of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO), Mr Khaled El-Enany, on Tuesday discussed a range of subject areas. During a meeting held on Tuesday, President Ali underscored that Guyana’s current development trajectory requires a strong partnership with UNESCO. He also highlighted that his government is prioritising the advancement of education, children, culture, history, art, heritage and, by extension, the orange economy as a central pillar of national development and economic diversification (Photo: President Ali/Facebook)
The new Board of Directors of the Iwokrama International Centre for Rainforest Conservation and Development recently outlined its plans during an engagement with President Ali.

He also encouraged the non-profit conservation entity to chart a course that aligns with the Guyana-based Global Biodiversity Alliance. The Iwokrama International Centre manages 371,000 hectares of Forest as a “living laboratory,” demonstrating how conservation, research, and sustainable economic use can successfully coexist (OP photo)
