🗓️ 2010: He joined @UNODC_ROPAN
🗓️ 2025: He stepped out of retirement and returned as a UN Volunteer with @UNVolunteers

The journey continues ! Thank you @UNVolunteers @UN
Cesar started his career as a UN Volunteer, and over 30 years later, ended it as a UN Volunteer—without aging at all, judging by the photos

The UN 🇺🇳 and EU 🇪🇺 strengthening the #partnership and #multilateral approach to #SustaDevelopment in #Guyana. #IVY2026 discussed and the role of @UNVolunteers and @VolunteeringCEV #volunteerism
@JeanKamau led UN 🇬🇾 heads in an annual dialogue with EU Ambassador Luca Pierantoni to discuss joint advocacy, deepened collaboration under the #SDGs, and explored synergies offered through the EU Gateway. A productive exchange reaffirming 🇪🇺🇺🇳partnership.

Glad to be a part of this fantastic Team working in Guyana 🇬🇾 🇺🇳 altogether delivering as one.
The UN 🇬🇾 country team retreat of Heads of Agencies provided a valuable space for strategic reflection and alignment, strengthening collective efforts across national priorities and reinforcing the UN’s coordinated support to the government and people of Guyana.
