After a recent round of meetings Guyanese stakeholders are now more familiar with the VPA and Guyana's progress to date. Participation at these meetings included representatives from the industry, civil society, indigenous communities and government agencies and focussed on capacity building and the establishment of an effective communication system for the VPA process.

The Communication and Consultation Strategy, formulated to advise on best practices for the process, is being finalised. The other activity involves Scoping of Impacts of the VPA for Guyana and a report on this has been submitted to Guyana Forestry Commission.

In accordance with the agreed „Roadmap‟ and the continuing efforts to advance the VPA process, the National Technical Working Group and their European counterparts discussed further development of the Legality Assurance System (LAS), opportunities for financial and technical support and the review of the Joint Roadmap. Representatives from the European Forest Institute have visited Guyana to assist in further development of various aspects of the LAS.
