Project Organisation

The project supervision will be the responsibility of Sea and Rivers Defence Division (SRDD) of the Ministry of Public Works and Communications, which has a direct responsibility to the Sea Defence Board (SBD). The Steering Committee for the project will be the Sea Defence Board which co-ordinates the activities with the ICZM Committee established under the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This ICZM Committee will finally give account to The Government of Guyana, Ministry of Finance and to the European Commission.

The Consultant is responsible for carrying out the programme of works for the project. The main role of the Consultant in the Training Programme is co-ordinating and facilitating the Trainee Teams. Furthermore, a number of data collection and processing tasks will be carried out, including training-on-the-job of the members of the trainee teams.
