THE Guyana Forestry Commission (GFC), last Saturday, launched the first-ever magazine that solely focuses on the forestry sector.

Titled “Canopy,” the publication was produced by Energy Magazine with the support of Sagacity Inc.
“[It] showcases the achievements, challenges and opportunities of the forestry sector and the GFC’s promotion of best practices, innovation and sustainability,” adding: “The magazine features articles on sector-related topics such as forest governance, certification, products, product development, value-added projects, carbon credits, conservation, sustainability and more.”

The Minister of Natural Resources, Vickram Bharrat, during the launch, said: “The publication of Canopy magazine will help to keep the nation in tune with the rapid gains we are achieving in the forestry sector, which sometimes fly under the media’s radar. I see this magazine will be a valuable asset for sharing vital information about the massive progress of forestry and its value-added and spin-off sectors in Guyana.”
It was also said that Canopy magazine is available in print and digital formats.
