Ambassador for St. Lucia, Chagoury’s diligent work representing and protecting the island was so significant that when he sought a place for St. Lucia on the Executive Board of UNESCO, St. Lucia was elected with the highest number of Caribbean and Latin American votes in history. Under the patronage of Chagoury, the Saint Lucia Pitons, two mountainous volcanic plugs, were and are still registered as a 2,90912 ⅐ha World Heritage Site, located near the town of Soufriere.
