The year 2003 was the first year of implementation for the Education Strategic Plan and a review of activities of Central Ministry and the Regional Departments indicate that more than two-thirds of the planned activities are in progress. • One of the most important objectives of this plan is an improvement in the achievement of nursery and primary students in literacy and mathematics skills. The achievement of this objective is being facilitated by the Basic Education Access and Management • Support (BEAMS) programme and the Caribbean Centres of Excellence in Teacher Training (CCETT) project. In preparation for these programmes, literacy and ' mathematics standards for nursery level, and grades 1 to 6 of the primary level, were • developed in an effort coordinated by the Curriculum Development Unit, but including inputs from many other education agencies. National and International specialist in Literacy, Interactive Radio Instruction (IRI), Testing and Teacher Training were appointed to support staff at the National Centre for Education Resource Development (NCERD) and the Cyril Potter College of Education (CPCE). In addition to the development of standards, work was started on the CCETT project, pilot schools were identified and training of teachers has begun. Additional human and material resources to support CPCE, which is the implementation agency for the CCETT project, are expected early in 2004. Manuals and training programmes for Master Trainers and Cluster advisors, to be recruited under Beams, are being developed. Support was also provided through the Learning Resources Development Unit. Two thousand flip charts were made to support teachers' efforts and to promote identified reading strategies in schools. Templates have been prepared to be used by teachers to create a variety of displays for reading rooms. Every effort has been made to ensure that there is collaboration and not duplication between the two projects. The National Grade Two Assessment was done for the first time in 2003. The test was administered to all students in Grade 2 of primary schools throughout the country. It was intended to administer the test in three areas: English Language; Mathematics and Reading, however industrial action by teachers during the period identified for the reading component, led to the postponement of that subject but the other subjects were administered as scheduled and individual school reports were prepared. The results of the test in this year will be the baseline to assess progress in future years. The Ministry's plans to improve the human resources of the system were given a very positive start. A Teacher Training Advisory Board has been set up and the first meeting was held in November. In January the Hinterland Teacher Upgrading Programme was expanded to riverain areas of Region 2. Centres have been established at Charity, Good Hope, Kabakaburi, Mainstay and Wakapao. I 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 The first ever blue print for a Hinterland Teacher Certificate programme was developed with the assistance of two consultants and the first Hinterland Teacher Certificate Programme was launched in Region 1 in Novernber. Three centres have been established at Mabaruna, Port Kaituma and Monica with a total of forty students. NCERD successfully conducted a Distance Education Management Course for senior school administrators. Two hundred and ten (21 10) schoOl administrators drawn from all regions of Guyana participated in the course. In addition to these major initiatives, training of practicing teachers continued at all levels. Though the Unit of Allied Arts, approximately three hundred and sixty (360) teachers from all levels were trained in some areas of Expressive Arts. Workshops in the core subjects, Spanish and scriptwriting were conducted for primary school teachers by various units of NCERD. A Training of Teachers workshop for the administration of the Grade 2 Reading Assessment was also conducted. Twenty-nine teachers, functioning as Schools Welfare Liaison Officers, received training to assist them with their responsibilities, while one refresher training course was held for existing School Welfare Officers. One very positive achievement was the enrolment of a number of lectures/instructors from each of the Technical and Vocational institutions in the Technical Teachers Training Programme. More than sixty-five percent of these persons completed the course successfully. While there were many achievements in the area of Human Resource Development some important training activities could not be carried out because: the strike by teachers prevented their attendance at workshops; and lack of/or non release of funds by UNICEF and the Ministry of Finance. These factors affected workshops planned for Health and Family Life Education (HFLE), Child Friendly Schools, Early Childhood Education and Transition from Secondary level to the World of Work.

    Between a Promise and a Trench: Citizenship, Vulnerability, and Climate Change in Guyana Sarah E. Vaughn Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Sarah E. Vaughn All rights reserved ABSTRACT Between a Promise and a Trench: Citizenship, Vulnerability, and Climate Change in Guyana Sarah E. Vaughn Between a Promise and a Trench examines how science is constituted as a strategic practice and site through which citizens make claims about racial democracy in Guyana. It shows how government policymaking around climate adaptation--which drew upon the recommendations of outside actors, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the United Nations (UN), and various NGOs and international scientific networks-- profoundly disrupted the country's delicate racial-ethnic balance. A contribution to the burgeoning anthropology on the social and political impact of climate change, the dissertation also speaks to current debates over race and citizenship, the complex relationship between expertise and democracy, and the competing post-colonial claims of Indo-, Afro-, and Amerindian Guyanese to land and self-determination. The dissertation is based on seventeen months of fieldwork and archival research conducted between, 2009-11 in coastal Guyana. It brings together three conflicting perspectives: of engineers, who drew upon datasets and models about flooding and construction of canals around IPCC and UN climate data; the state officials, who sought to reduce vulnerability to flood hazards through land evictions; and of Indo-, Afro-, and Amerindian Guyanese farmers and squatters who were evicted as a result of post-2005 engineering projects.

  • Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana
    NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Eradicating Poverty and Unifying Guyana A Civil Society Document - AN OVERVIEW - I GUYANA - BASIC INFORMATION • Guyana, with an area of 83,000 square miles or 215,000 square kilometres, is located on the northern coast of South America, and is the only English-speaking country on that continent. It is bounded on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, on the east by Surinam, on the south and south-west by Brazil, and on the west and north-west by Venezuela. • Guyana is physically divided into four types of landforms: (i) a flat coastal, clayey belt which is about 4.5 feet below sea level, and in which most of its agricultural activity occurs; (ii) a sand belt, to the south of the coastal belt, which includes the Intermediate Savannas; (iii) an undulating, central peneplain which comprises more than half of the country’s area, and in which are located lush, almost pristine, tropical forests, and extensive mineral deposits. This landform stretches from the sand belt to the country’s southern boundary and encompasses, also, the Rupununi Savannas which border Brazil; and (iv) the highlands which are to be found in the midwestern area. This portion of the Guiana Highlands includes the Pakaraima mountain range. • Guyana has a plentitude of natural resources: fertile agricultural lands on the coastal plain and in the riverain areas; vast areas of tropical hardwood forests of various ecosystems and with a multitude of plant and animal species; abundant fish and shrimping grounds, both in its numerous rivers and in the Atlantic Ocean to its north; and a wide variety of minerals, including gold, diamonds, a range of semi-precious stones, bauxite and manganese.

  • Guyana's Flood Disaster...The National Response
    Introduction The natural disaster…and after Torrential rain, a deluge, an inundation of parts of the Coastland, in short - the country’s worst natural disaster, was the experience of Guyanese during the January- February period. The average amount of rainfall in Guyana for the month of January for the past 100 years is 7.3 inches. However, the country witnessed more than seven times that in January 2005 - some 52 inches. From December 24 through January 31 the total amount of rainfall exceeded 60 inches, with one night’s rainfall amounting to seven inches. This resulted in severe flooding and Government declaring Regions Three, Four and Five disaster areas. As the Administration planned its response, President Bharrat Jagdeo immediately called meetings of Cabinet Ministers, Leader of the Opposition Robert Corbin, Joint Service Heads and the City Council. Later he met with representatives of the Guyana Red Cross and members of religious organizations and non-governmental organizations. From these meetings with various stakeholders, committees, including members of the Opposition, were established in charge of water, food, shelter, health care and infrastructure, to assist affected people. Cabinet Ministers were dispatched to affected areas and provided periodic briefs to the Head of State. A committee headed by Cabinet Secretary Dr. Roger Luncheon to coordinate assistance from overseas and the donor community, was also established. A Joint Operation Centre (JOC) was set up at Eve Leary and the relief efforts were coordinated through this entity, while the President’s Residence, State House was used as a resource centre. The worst hit areas were the East Coast of Demerara in Region Four and Canal No.

    146 An Annotated Checklist of the Anopheles of Guyana, South America bY Indal Rambajanl ABSTRACT. Twenty-two species of Anopheline mosquitoes are confirmed as occurring in Guyana. In addition, data is presented on several subgenera. INTRODUCTION An annotated checklist of the AnopheZes found in Guyana is presented. It represents an up-date on the reports of Bruce --et al, (1943), Stage & Giglioli (1948) and Giglioli (1948). Giglioli (1948) noted that 16 species of AnopheZes were confirmed records and a number of others were reported as uncertain. In this checklist, 22 species are now confirmed as occurring in Guyana. In addition to the records based on the author's observations, data are included from the following: Subgenus Nyssorhynchus of AnopheZes - AZbimanus Section (Faran 1980); Argyritarsk Section (Linthicum, thesis 1978); Subgenus Kertesz-ia (Zavortink 1973); Knight & Stone (1977); Giglioli (1948); Komp (1942) and Kuyp (1950). In Guyana, the subgenus Nyssorhynchus is presently considered the only medically important group of AnopheZes. Faran & Linthicum (1981) treated the Albimanus and Argyritarsis sections of this subgenus. With the exception of An. albimanus Wiedemann, 1820, the entire subgenus is restricted to the Neotropical Region. AnopheZes aZbimanus is not found in Guyana. Detailed accounts of these two sections were given by Faran (1980), Faran & Linthicum (1981) and Linthicum (Thesis 1978). AnopheZes darZingi Root, 1926, of the Argyritarsis section of the subgenus Nyssorhynchus is considered the most important anopheline in Guyana, being the primary, if not the only vector of human malaria. Also, it has been considered by Davis (1931), Causey, Deane et al, (1945) and Giglioli (1948) to be a possible vector of Wuchereria banerofti- (Ebbold), 1877, the causative organism of human filariasis in Brazil and Guyana.
