British Embassy welcomes roadmap for a water law in Guatemala
British Embassy welcomes Guatemalan Government’s plans to create a water law in consultation with many sectors.
A British Embassy official attended the launch of the plan to create a water law in Guatemala, which will start this year until 2025. This national commitment was announced on 29 August by the Executive and endorsed by Congress, civil society, and indigenous peoples.
A British Embassy spokesperson said:
We congratulate the Guatemalan Government for presenting the initiative to create a water law in Guatemala.
Guatemala now joins the path travelled by many countries to preserve their natural resources while addressing the impacts of climate change.
The UK continues to work with Guatemala on this and other environmental priorities, such as the protection of biodiversity and forests, and addressing global climate challenges.
