The Government of Guy-ana on Wednesday signed a Memorandum of Under-standing (MoU) for cooperation with the Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS), an internationally operating nature-based organisation.
The FZS, which was founded in 1858, has been supporting conservation projects in Africa, Central and South America, South-east Asia and Europe for many decades, according to a statement issued by the Protected Area Commission (PAC).
At the signing, it said, Robert Persaud, Foreign Secretary and the Chair of the Protected Areas Com-mission Board, highlighted that the Government of Guyana is committed to protecting and managing all natural patrimony to not only bequeath it for the future generations but to ensure that the social and economic needs of Guyanese are met in the present.
