Germany has agreed to donate 4 million euros to Costa Rica and the Arias administration is considering it the kickoff of the Consensus of Costa Rica.
The amount is about 2.6 billion colons.
The donation is for an environmental program called competitiveness and the environment. Representing their countries Thursday for a signing ceremony were Volker Fink. the German ambassador, and Bruno Stagno, the Costa Rican foreign minister. The program is in the planning stages and includes an emphasis on management of municipal solid waste.
The Consensus of Costa Rica is a proposal by President Óscar Arias Sánchez that First World nations forgive the debts and support developing countries that invest in health, education and housing at the expense of the military. Arias presented the plan formally before the United Nations General Assembly Sept. 19.
