Conservation International has been established in Guyana with the main purpose of assisting the government in creating a national system of protected areas. They have been assisting the government of Guyana develop a strategy for carbon sequestration and the sale of credits.

Their vision is to establish Biodiversity Corridors in Guyana, incorporating the anchors of a National Protected Area System, while developing trans-boundary corridors across the Guiana Shield. They have been working with the Government of Guyana and resident indigenous communities to develop long term and sustainable management for the establishment of protected areas, helping to develop protected area legislation in Guyana and actively working with the Government to endow and establish a protected areas trust fund to finance the management of Guyana’s protected areas in perpetuity.
