This document is the third draft of Guyana’s Low Carbon Development Strategy (LCDS). It reflects the outcome of almost a year of review and consultation within Guyana, coupled with input from climate change negotiations at the United Nations, and other international climate change initiatives.

This update to the LCDS provides a summary of progress against both of these goals, as of March 2013 – as well as an outline on the focus of LCDS implementation for the period 2013 to 2015.
