CARICOM Secretary General Ambassador Irwin LaRocque and Germany’s Ambassador to CARICOM HE Mr Holger Michael on Wednesday exchanged notes for a project to build Climate Resilience and Sustainable Energy in the Region.
The project, to be financed by the Government of Germany in the amount of 2.3 million Euros, represents a further step in the country’s support to the Region in areas of mutual interest.
In March, the then newly accredited Ambassador signed an agreement totalling 25, 700,000 Euros for a Sustainable Financing Mechanism for Marine Protection in the Region.
Wednesday’s exchange took place on the margins of a Breakfast Meeting hosted by the CARICOM Secretary-General for Ambassadors accredited to CARICOM. Ambassadors were briefed on the major issues on the agenda for the 39th Regular Meeting of CARICOM Heads of Government in Jamaica, 4-6 July 2018.
