During this week’s episode of the Energy Perspectives Podcast, President of Guyana, Dr. Irfaan Ali provides a holistic overview of his plans to take the world’s fastest growing economy into the 21st Century. The Guyanese leader, in an interview with journalist Kiana Wilburg, also provided critical insight into his strategy to accelerate diversified growth while simultaneously closing the country’s human resource gap. He also shed light on Guyana’s responsibility in addressing regional energy security. Equally significant were his thoughts on how Guyana is leading the charge on forest conservation in important global spaces such as the Commonwealth and the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).
