Welcome to another edition of the GEF SGP Trinidad and Tobago Newsletter. 2017 was indeed a year of transition for the GEF SGP- globally and locally. We welcomed our new GEF SGP Global Manager, Ms. Yoko Wantanabe with over 20 years of professional experiences working on biodiversity and natural resources management in close partnership with civil society and indigenous peoples. 2017 also launched the celebration of the GEF SGP 25th Anniversary and rebranding of the SGP logo. The logo symbolizes GEF SGP’s renewed commitment to supporting the innovative solutions of communities and civil society organizations on global environment and sustainable development issues.
