British High Commission, Georgetown, Guyana
The British High Commission in Georgetown, Guyana is an equal-opportunity employer.
The High Commission supports the development of Guyana’s fledgling tourism sector by raising awareness of global industry standards and disseminating best management practices for local tourism enterprises, including hotels, eco-resorts and tour companies. Working in collaboration with the Guyana Tourism Authority, Guyana Amazon Tropical birding Society, Rupununi Tourism Association of Guyana, South Rupununi Conservation Society and Guyana’s top birding guides, the High Commission developed a Birding Tours Self-Assessment Checklist: A practical guide for good environmental practices. This is the first of its kind in the world and helps to position Guyana as an international leader in sustainable birding tourism development.
