Birding Good Practices Self-Assessment Checklist

The British High Commission in Guyana supports the development of Guyana’s fledgling tourism sector by raising awareness of global industry standards and disseminating best management practices for local tourism enterprises, including hotels, eco-resorts and tour companies. Working in collaboration with the Guyana Tourism Authority, Guyana Amazon Tropical Birds Society, Rupununi Tourism Association, South Rupununi Conservation Society and Guyana’s top birding guides, the High Commission developed a Birding Tours Self-Assessment Checklist : A practical guide for good environmental practices. This self-assessment checklist is the first of its kind in the world and helps to position Guyana as an international leader in sustainable birding tourism development.
