The operation provides for the recruitment of 21 hunter licence trainers, recruited locally based on their knowledge of the environment, hunters and hunting practices in Guyana, who will be tasked with training new hunters at 20 training sites. These trainers will receive initial training as of the end of 2019 for a perfect control of the safe handling of hunting weapons, regulation, management of species, promotion of traditional hunting practices. Throughout 2020, they will be accompanied on an ongoing basis by ONCFS officers to improve their training activities for young hunters. They will be paid up to 96 hours of annual vacations, distributed in the year according to the flow of candidates to be trained. Indeed, the flow of candidates for the exam is unknown since the permit has never been put in place in Guyana. This recruitment system allows flexibility and allows the trainer’s activity to be adapted to applications for registration for examination. A trainer could also strengthen the activity of another trainer in a different municipality if the need arises. The ONCFS is not intended to recruit these trainers on a permanent basis. The aim is to structure the network throughout the country and then transfer as soon as possible this network of trainers who have become professionals to a local structure, representative of the Guyanese hunters. The operation also includes the installation of the 20 training sites as well as the drafting and editing of a booklet for trained hunters. This booklet will include all the elements provided during the training and will offer examples of theoretical and practical examinations. Each practical training site will take the form of a layon in the forest, with silhouettes of animals scattered along the layon, in order to test the candidate’s ability to safely hunt. The training programme under preparation is set out in the annex to the file.
