October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month — a time to raise awareness, support those affected and advocate for early detection, timely diagnosis and access to quality treatment and care.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide, yet where someone lives can still significantly affect their access to diagnosis, treatment and chances of survival.
This October, the Delegation of the European Union in Guyana stands with everyone whose life has been touched by breast cancer — patients, survivors, families, caregivers and health professionals.
Know the signs. Seek care early. Support one another. No one should face breast cancer alone. 💗

The European Union and Guyana have concluded the 6th Joint Monitoring and Review Committee (JMRC) and 5th Political Meeting under the EU–Guyana FLEGT Voluntary Partnership Agreement, [VPA], reaffirming their commitment to sustainable forest management, stronger forest governance and ensuring that timber exported from Guyana to the EU is legally produced.
Co-chaired by Ambassador Luca Pierantoni and Minister of Natural Resources Vickram Bharrat, the meeting reviewed progress on Guyana’s Timber Legality Assurance System, including the Digital Wood Tracking System, legal reforms, stakeholder engagement and support to the private sector.
The two sides also signed an Aide Mémoire outlining joint commitments and the way forward.
🌳 As the first South American country to implement a VPA with the EU, Guyana continues working towards a credible and lasting FLEGT licensing system—supporting sustainable development while meeting international legal and sustainability standards. by @euinguyana

The European Union funded Sustainable Forest Livelihoods - SFL programme in Guyana marked a major achievement, with the recent commissioning of a new timber processing facility, equipping the 164-member Upper Berbice Multipurpose Cooperative Society Ltd (UBMCSL) to add value to its timber and strengthen its forest-based enterprise.
The ceremony, held in Kwakwani, brought together community members and leaders, and the partners behind the Sustainable Forest Livelihoods (SFL) programme, including the EU Ambassador, Luca Pierantoni; Edward Goberdhan, Commissioner of the GFC; Anton Thom, Chairman of UBMCSL; Simone Benn, GFC/SFL Project Lead; Aiesha Williams, Conservation Director at WWF-Guianas; and Sara Henry, SFL Country Programme Coordinator in Guyana.
Speaking at the ceremony, EU Ambassador Luca Pierantoni, underscored the wider significance of the investment. “This milestone is about much more than commissioning a piece of equipment. It is about investing in people, strengthening local enterprises, and demonstrating that sustainable forest management can create lasting economic opportunities while protecting one of Guyana’s greatest natural assets.” He noted that this partnership reflects the shared commitment to ensuring that healthy forests continue to provide opportunities for present and future generations. by @euinguyana
