Summary

The Guyana Water Strategic Plan 2021-2025 functions as the comprehensive planning document for water in Guyana, via the state-owned and ministerially controlled Guyana Water Incorporated. The plan acknowledges climate change as a major threat to water resources in Guyana, through drought, over-reliance on groundwater, and resulting groundwater saline intrusion. A primary aim of the plan is to improve the security and availability of surface water resources, including the reuse of wastewater, to help adapt to the growing threats of climate change.
