Wrapping up the Fourth GEF Assembly

In continuation of the 4th GEF Assembly in Punta del Este, Uruguay, the third day of events proved to be just as eventful as the first two, which had included a Civil Society Forum, plenary sessions, and roundtable discussions. Wednesday’s events were comprised of an address by the President of Uruguay, José Mujica, side events, more plenary meetings, a discussion on GEF country membership, and finally, the closing of the Assembly by GEF CEO and Chairperson Monique Barbut.
