“The country is fighting the spread of infectious diseases such as malaria, which kill thousands of people every year. Difficult geographical conditions and poor infrastructure make the fight against epidemics difficult.
Another important issue is the protection of forests. New Guinea has unique tropical forests with many species of flora and fauna. But deforestation and mining for agricultural purposes put these precious ecosystems at risk.
In recent years, New Guinea has also experienced heavy rains resulting in devastating flooding. The government of our country has projects related to solving the problems mentioned above, but we lack financing. That’s why I came to COP29 to look for allies who can help solve our problems,” said Dr. Sov.
