The election occurred during the 10th Session of the Conference of Parties (COP10) to the International Convention against Doping in Sport, held at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris.

The Minister of Culture, Youth and Sport, Charles Ramson Jr, represented Guyana.

The election signals a growing international recognition of Guyana's increasing role and commitment within the global sports administration sphere.

The Fund for the Elimination of Doping in Sport, established in 2008, is crucial in assisting countries in developing and implementing effective anti-doping projects.

Guyana's position on the Approval Committee means it will now help oversee and decide on allocating funds for projects worldwide.

Since its inception, the fund has invested over USD $5 million in more than 200 projects globally.
