10 Years of CAFTA-DR Environmental Cooperation: WEC's Remarks

I am delighted to be here to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the CAFTA-Dr Environmental Cooperation. This very important milestone provides an opportunity for both rigorous assessment and future planning. I want to especially acknowledge the great leadership provided by the US Department of State and its Bureau for Oceans and International Environmental and Scientific Affairs (OES); environmental, economic and other ministries represented in OAS member countries in the CAFTA-DR region; and the many participating small businesses, entrepreneurs, universities, local partners and other stakeholders that have dedicated themselves to achieving important successes.
